Here’s everything you need to know about the Romance Consultant career in The Sims 4, including its requirements and rewards.

There are plenty of jobs in The Sims 4 that your Sims can pursue – but with the new Lovestruck expansion pack, they can now play Cupid while earning Simoleons and unlocking career-specific objects.

As a Romance Consultant, your Sim essentially becomes the expert in dating. Through leveling up Romance skills and doing tasks, they’ll be able to guide others struggling with loneliness to find their true love.

And if being hilariously annoying or nosey sounds better, you’re always welcome to give others unsolicited romance advice. Read on to find out how to advance the Romance Consultant career in The Sims 4 Lovestruck.

When pursuing the Romance Consultant career, the main skill you’ll need to level up and earn a promotion is the Romance skill level. Other requirements include reading a Romance novel and leveling up your Charisma and Logic skills, among others.

On top of leveling up your skills, ideally, you’ll also want your Sim to finish their career-specific daily tasks to get a boost in promotion. Doing so will allow them to reach the next level of their career, giving them more benefits.
