Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.59.73.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a sim complete a degree at either university
What happens when the bug occurs? The earned degree does not apply to the job my sim gets after graduating.
What do you expect to see? My sim should start careers that correspond with the degree earned at university at a higher level
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
My sims earn degrees at university and then when that apply for a job that corresponds with the degree they earned, they don't receive any bonus or automatic promotions.

You would need to wait until the degree shows up under their traits. Then choose a job highlighted in red.
If your mods were in place when you graduated and took the job they may have impacted the outcome.
Try removing (not disabling) mods / cc and delete the localthumbcache.package and any other cache files.
Test the game to see if quitting the job and rejoining the career will let you join at a higher level.

- madry12166 years agoRising Traveler@EuphorialQueen That is something I tried. When my mods were in I tried to get the job. When the benefits of the degree were not received, I quit, removed my mods, deleted localthumbcache and ran a game repair while my mods were out then restarted still without my mods. I had my sim quit her career and then when I tried rejoining the career I still had to start the career on level one.
