💼 Money & workHow to get a job in Lagos Life
Know the skill requirements, workplace and schedule before choosing a career.
Compare entry-level jobs first
Open the jobs wiki and compare entry-level base shift pay, shift hours and workdays. Check the workplace too: the game includes careers in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt.
A job with the largest top-level salary may have entry requirements or a long shift. Use the city and skill filters to narrow your options.
Check requirements and specializations
Each career page lists explicit entry requirements when available. Some career paths also have specializations with their own skills and requirements.
Where no specific entry skill requirement is listed, the wiki does not infer one from the career skill. A skill used for progression is not automatically an entry requirement.
Plan around the scheduled shift
Check the start time and days of work. Travel and needs matter when planning your day, especially for long shifts.
Use the career progression table to see how pay changes at each level. Actual pay can be affected by shift completion, qualifications, bonuses and taxes.
Game rules and prices may change. Check your current in-game options before spending.
