Recommended Career Path

1

Start with Army

When you first start out, join the city career of Army. This earns you job points each day which you can spend to help speed up your strength in the gym.

2

Switch to Education (after ~1 month)

After working in Army for a month or so, leave and join the city career in Education. Work your way up to the role of Principal, which unlocks a permanent passive perk called Cheat Sheets.

Cheat Sheets reduces all of your education training time by 10% — a huge benefit over the long term. Best of all, you can quit this job and keep the perk forever.

Join a Member-Owned Company

Once you've earned the Principal title and unlocked Cheat Sheets, quit and start looking for member-owned companies. Each company type offers different perks — pick one that best suits your playstyle.
