It seems your Sim can only take one career branch. My Sim is in the Chef branch, he quit so he could join the Mixology branch. But the minimum level of the Culinary career he could find is Head Caterer, which is the career you get after choosing the Chef branch. He couldn't get the job at a lower level so as to take the other branch.
I'm really freaking out by this. :'(
That is seriously unfortunate! I just wanted to tell you that the same problem existed in the Sims 3. I had my girl reach the top of the criminal career, and she was on the evil branch and got an aura of evil that made everyone hate her--even her family members, and the family had been so tight knit. That aura was ruining my game, so I made her quit and I wanted her to become a thief. Not only did that fail to work, but my attempt made it that she was unable to take any career after that except the self employed ones :'(
I am sad to hear they still haven't made changes to that. Sims may want to change careers later, and may want to try the other branch. I wouldn't mind playing an immortal sim that spends eternity mastering every career and every branch! lol That would be epic. Please EA, allow our sims to change their minds about these types of things!! Even if it means that they must sacrifice a legendary trait (I can understand if there's a special trait earned for each branch that the game might not want you to have both traits on the same character, but they could just force the special trait to be lost when you earn another career based special trait.)
