Careers can be rewarding. In the case of "The Sims 2," the rewards come in the form of skill objects. As Sims progress through their career, they earn a Career Reward Object. The objects are earned at different levels depending upon the career track.
Using the Career Reward Object
The Career Reward let Sims earn skills at faster rate. The Sim who earned the object is the not the only one who can use the reward. They can teach other Sims how to use the object, so they too can earn skill points faster.
The table below shows which objects can be earned and the level it is rewarded for the orignal career tracks in "The Sims 2." New career reward objects are available in "The Sims 2 University."
Note: If your Sim moves after putting the Career Reward Object on their lot, they will lose the object and have to earn it again.
