The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle: Civil Designer Career Overview

Presented by EA Game Changers

The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle comes with the new Civil Designer career. The Civil Designer career is a work-from-home career with two branches; Green Technician and Civic Planner. Like other work-from-home careers, your Sim will be given the option to go to a rabbithole venue or perform daily work tasks from home about an hour before their work shift starts. Advancing in this career will reward your Sims with influence points to vote on community space projects and neighbourhood action plans, new objects to help them in their career, and even new traits at the highest level.
