Jobs, known as Part-Time Jobs in Tamagotchi P's are a feature introduced in Chou Jinsei Enjoi Tamagotchi Plus.
Obtaining a Job[]
In the Entama, Uratama and Hanerutchi 2, in order to get hired, the Tamagotchi character must have a certain Skill Points the highest or having a certain ticket. Two days after entering adulthood, they will graduate from their class and get application for job interviews. There are 5 jobs that depend on the highest Skill Points they currently have, as well as secret one(s) should the character has respective tickets. Each Skill Point related job has a different requirement of minimum Skill Points in order for the Tamagotchi character to get accepted by the job. Certain jobs are also part of the requirements of obtaining a hidden character.
In Tamagotchi Connection Version 4 and Version 4.5, the obtaining of jobs is similar, though not exactly the same as the Tamagotchi Plus counterparts. After receiving notes from the ‘Important Events’ section, the Tamagotchi character will be presented with 5 jobs related to their highest Skill Points – this time in the form of the pictures of buildings rather than words, and unlike the Tamagotchi Plus jobs, there are no ‘tier’ between jobs – all jobs can accept the Tamagotchi character if they have a generally high Skill Points and is taken good care of. The requirements of certain jobs for hidden characters have also been omitted. Instead, the characters just have to reach a certain number of Skill Points.
In the Tamagotchi P's in order to get hired, one must fulfill the requirement dedicated to the job. They are:
- Tsubomi Park: Visit to the park at least 10 times.
- Tamadepa and Tamamori shop: Buy at least 2 items.
- Music cafe: Eat at least 10 times.
Working[]
In the Entama, Uratama and Hanerutchi 2, going to work is simple as going to the item icon and pressing B on the on the Work item and then select the item dedicated to the job. The Tamagotchi character will then be seen 'away' for a while, before coming back. After that, its Skill Points dedicated to the job boost.
Jobs in these toys have a ‘Star Rank’ system: after getting the job, getting 400 Skill Points related to the job will raise the Star Rank by 1, and another 400 will raise it by another 1, capping at 3 Stars. Only the Skill Points obtained after getting the job are counted, but even if the Skill Points already maxed out, the Tamagotchi character can still raise their Star Rank by continuing to earn Skill Points that won’t count in. For example, if a character gets Hot Bath Attendant at 999 Social Skill Points in Entama, they will still start with 1 Star, but can still raise it to 3 Stars after actions that can increase 800 Skill Points are done. Contrary to popular belief, one doesn’t need a 3-Star-Rank job to get the hidden character, just 999 Skill Points within 72 hours.
In both the V4 and V4.5, the option to go to work has been moved from item icon to the connection icon. in order to go to work, go to the connection icon and then select the option called ‘Work’. After that, the user will play a minigame that is different between each job (though some jobs in different skill categories have identical minigames with only aesthetic changes). Playing these minigames will not directly award Gotchi Points, but the Tamagotchi will get the skill points dedicated to the job based on the owner’s performance, and the times as well as the results of the minigames will influence the salary earned.
On the P's, one must go to the park between 7am and 10am.
Salary[]
In Entama, Uratama and Hanerutchi 2, salary is given through mail every day at the time the job’s obtained. The salary depends on the Star Rank: 1-Star has 1000 GP, 2-Star has 3000 GP, and 3-Star has 5000 GP.
In V4 and V4.5, salary is instead collected at the ‘Work’ option from Nazotchi the first time the Tamagotchi goes to work every day after the day they get the job. It now depends on how many job minigames are played, their outcomes, as well as the amount of respective Skill Points the Tamagotchi has. Since V4 and V4.5 now have Senior characters retire from their job, it isn’t possible to collect salary anymore once it happens.
In the P's, items or accessory are randomly given every 30 hours instead.
Trivia[]
- Despite the fact that Part-Time jobs in real-life are workers with less work time, the Tamagotchi may stay as long as the owner wishes in the P's.
- Tamagotchi Smart features 'TamaWork' that is a place dedicated for part-time jobs; however, this is in reality just a reskin of arcade from past toys.
