Full-time jobs are never available to teens. Teens and elders can work part-time in The Sims 2.In The Sims, the job-seeking Sim must be in a good mood in order to be able to look for a job.(In The Sims, Sims will start at level one whether they get their jobs from the computer or from the newspaper.) A Sim getting a job from the computer (the different types of computers work identically) can start higher. A Sim getting a job from the newspaper starts low in the career track, usually at level one (exceptions exist see below). Sims can also get a part-time job or start in a career track by going to its Community building. There are no skill requirements to enter a particular career although doing well in school or university may allow the Sim to start at higher level jobs. A Sim may get a job by reading a newspaper, using a computer, or just going directly to the job location.
