How to Start
To start this career use the phone or the computer. This career is a single track which means there are no branches of the career. At the start of the work day you will get the choice to join or send alone, If you send alone the sim will disappear into a rabbit hole, If you chose Join, then you will go to the hospital and give them commands though the work day to complete the day. You cannot control other family members or switch between them during an active work day.
To Get a head start on this career go to university first a guide for university will come soon.
This Career will allow you to access the Alien world Sixam, where you will find more aliens and a couple of rocks to collect.

The Running of the day
Each work day is run as an event at the Science facility , there will be a goal meter in the top left of the screen, which will give you 3 goals to complete, as you complete a goal it will refresh with a new goal. As you complete more goals you will go from bronze, silver and gold, the more goals you completed the better work day you will have.
It is best to follow these and not to do what ever you want if you want to progress through the career, It is also easier to get a diagnosis by following the goals set out.
At the end of the work day you sim will receive their pay and promotions based on how well they have done.
If you click on the timer for the work day that is attached to the event bar, you can chose to finish work earlier or work late.
