This Apprenticeship can promote into the Music Career. Late Night and University Life are required.
Now, these Apprenticeships are, essentially, part-time teen careers. Your teens can go and apply at the associated rabbit-hole building and land themselves a three-level apprenticeship. To change the designated rabbithole to suit your own requirements, I have a tutorial HERE for you to follow. They will earn money each day and will work from 4pm-7pm, Monday to Friday.
Once your teen is promoted to Level 3, they will receive a reward certificate in their Family Inventory to put up on the wall to show off their achievements. As an additional bonus, when your teen ages up to Young Adult, when they apply for the connecting career, they’ll start at a higher level!
Each Apprenticeship has its own custom uniform. There are, currently, no opportunities. It’s challenging enough getting the teens to complete homework and build up the required skills, without throwing extra opportunities into the equation!
How The Promoting Works
When your teenage Sim ages up while employed in an Apprenticeship, they will appear to stay in the apprenticeship. In order for them to get into the “Adult” career, your Sim needs to apply for the job via the Rabbithole, or on the newspaper or computer, as normal. They will appear to only be in level one of the “Adult” career when they join, but after a few moments, it will change to a different level.
If your Sim is at Level One in the apprenticeship, they will not gain any career advancement.
If your Sim is at Level Two in the apprenticeship, they will promote into Level 4 in the “Adult” career.
If your Sim is at Level Three in the apprenticeship, they will promote into Level 6 in the “Adult” career.
Please don’t ask me to change this! It’s the way to code works in Twallan’s Careers mod and I can’t change it.
The Apprenticeship is in English and supports Spanish, German, Russian, French, Dutch and Chinese translations.
The Apprenticeship is located at the Theatre and has a custom uniform for all three levels. It focuses on the Bass, Guitar, Piano, Drums and Social Networking skills.
1. Marketing and Promotions Assistant ~ Intermediate: The first step of your Apprenticeship has begun! While practising your musical skills, you’re assisting in promoting the gigs of the local bands and singers and giving your opinion on posters and television and radio advertisements. You get to meet the local musicians up close and see that they are just Sims. Using your social networking skills, you’ll advertise the latest gigs and interviews on your blog and your favourite social networking sites to get the word around. It’s an exciting job and you can meet so many new people and get quite a name for yourself around your local town.
§10/hour
Hours: 4.00pm ~ 7.00pm
Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
2. Venue and Stage Crew ~ Advanced: When the bands have a gig, somebody has to set the stage up beforehand and make sure the lighting is ready, the microphones are working and the set won’t collapse on the band during the performance. You’re also responsible for booking the venues well in advance, so don’t think of leaving it to the last minute. The band won’t be as understanding as your teacher might be!
§15/hour
Hours: 4.00pm ~ 7.00pm
Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
3. A&R (Artists and Repertoire) ~ Higher: So, after all this time behind the scenes, you’re finally the one on stage, and not just to do a sound and lighting check. You’re one of the artists! You only perform in the local area, but once your name gets out (and lets face it, you’ve had experience of social networking), you’ll be ready to take on the world! Congratulations on your dedication!
