The Sims 4 Island Living comes with four new careers including the part-time Diver career. This is just one of three new part-time careers that your Sim can join.
As with any career, your Sim can join the Diver career simply by sitting down at a laptop/computer, using their cell phone or by the career tab on the user interface.
Note: Your Sim can have more than one part-time job, providing that the shift times do not conflict with each other.

Like most of the careers in the game, your Sim will go to work and return at the end of their shift. There is also no work from home assignments for this career.
The Diver career also comes with three levels that can be found detailed below.
| Job Role | Work Days & Shift Times | Hourly Rate | Promotion Tasks | Promotion Bonus |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Snorkel Guide | Monday to Friday 5pm-8pm | $45 | Purchase a Diving Knife from a Diving Bouy | |
| Scuba Instructor | Monday to Friday 5pm-8pm | $59 | Purchase a Treasure Tool dive gear from a Diving Bouy | Scuba Dive Tank |
| Sunken Treasure Hunter | Monday to Friday 5pm-8pm | $70 | N/A | Mermaid's Love Treasure Chest |
Note: The promotion tasks state you need to find a Diving Buoy in order to purchase the required items. You will need to find the correct one that is located in the deeper water areas in Sulani to complete these tasks. The Diving Buoy will also have other items other than the ones required for the promotions.

Will your Sims be taking the plunge and exploring what is beneath the sea in Sulani?
Let us know what you think of the new Diver career below in the comments.

Thank you.

You need to find the one on deep sea water. The ones near corals are not the one, as the sea is not deep enough. It is not on the volcano area nor on the town area. I don’t remember the name of the area, but is the one on the left.

It’s outside of the empty space in Mua Pel’am
It’s way out in the deep water.

Hi. My sim get sunburnt. When she get back to her normal skin??
Reply to Aria
Use the code ‘bb.testingcheats on’, and press ‘shift’ and click on your sim, then you’ll select ‘sunbathing settings’ (I don’t remember exactly what it said, but it was something like that), and just select ‘no tan’

Sorry, the code is not ‘bb.testingcheats on’, it’s just ‘testingcheats on’

Thank a million times
I can’t wait until someone mods this to an active career (hopefully NoelleBelleFleur can add it to her collection) – there’s not really any reason it can’t be, especially compared to other semi-active/work from home careers. Just snorkel/dive, talk about diving, research diving spots, take/sell diving photos.
I am level 3 diver but I still can’t purchase the mermaid’s love treasure chest 🙁 help
Reply to Jane
Mermaids treasure chest is a career reward for reaching level 3 of the diver career, not a purchase item
