Re: change your career branch

I played another family for a few days and when I went back, one of my Sims has been promoted and chosen Musician branch instead of Comedian branch, which makes no sense because she has the Joke Star aspiration. Now if I quit her job she can only reapply as a musician. I can’t start her again at level 1? So annoying

    There's usually a cool-down period in-between jobs where when you rejoin the same career, you will pick back up at a point in your career that is close to where you were before. (You usually will start only a rank down from where you were previously.)

    If you wait a few days after leaving a job before returning to work, your ranks for the job you are re-applying for will slowly deteriorate. If you wait long enough that you are back to before the point where you had to make the branch decision (Example: Entertainer to either Musician or Comedian), you should be able to then change your decision when re-applying.
