Before starting Project Zomboid, a character will need to be created for the player to use; giving them a name, choosing an occupation, as well as selecting certain traits (both positive and negative).
Each occupation gives different advantages to your character which will allow them to excel in certain fields more so than other characters.
It should be noted that Occupations, unlike Traits, do not have any negative impacts on the player and do not need to be balanced with other traits to start the game. It is currently possible to start a new character with an occupation only by not adding any other Traits.
Current List of Occupations
Unemployed
This occupation comes with no unique trait and appears to have no advantages. It's unwise to choose this occupation.
Fire Officer
Grants the perk Axe Man which doubles the speed when breaking down a door with an axe. It also allows for faster axe swinging.
Police Officer
Grants the perk Marksman. The perk improves the accuracy of firearms and allows for faster reloading.
Park Ranger
Grants the perk Outdoorsman. The perk causes cold weather to have little or no effect on the player. It also allows for greater orienteering (unsure as to what that entails exactly.)
Construction Worker
Grants the perk Thick Skinned and Handy. It is the only job to have two unique traits assigned to the occupation. Thick Skinned makes it so the player has less of a chance getting a scratch or bite injury from zombies. This can be extremely useful when combating zombies. Handy allows the player to barricade faster.
Security Guard
Choosing this occupation grants the unique perk of Night Owl which means the player requires less sleep and is more alert while alert. Helpful in the event a zed starts knocking at your door.
