With their curiosity about almost everything, enthusiasm, wanderlust, and zest for life, Sagittarius has a ton of career options. Still, their unique personality traits and skills make them more suited for some jobs than others. Due to their optimism, flexibility, and friendliness, they seldom meet strangers and can get along with almost anyone. These are some of the Sagittarius careers that are sure to make a Sagittarius's sun shine!
Flight Attendant
A Sagittarius is versatile, quick to act, and enjoys interacting with others. All are traits a flight attendant needs. Flight attendants wear many hats. They demonstrate safety procedures, serve refreshments, ensure passengers are safe and comfortable, and must be ready to act in an emergency. As a flight attendant, a Sagittarius would meet and interact with people from different countries during their flights. Between flights, they could explore various cities, countries, and cultures.
Professional Airline Pilot
Becoming an airline pilot means a Sagittarius will have opportunities to travel — and get paid to do it! Pilots travel many different routes. Every working day can mean taking off in one country only to land in another — potentially to a country they have yet to explore. Between flights, pilots have opportunities to explore new cities and experience different cultures. Plus, they work from an office in the sky with spectacular views a Sagittarius will never tire of.
Professional Big Rig Driver
A job as a professional big rig driver will keep a Sagittarius going on extended adventures. There's probably no better way for a Sagittarian to see the entire country up close (and get paid for doing it) than from behind the wheel of a big rig truck.
Cruise Line Worker
Working on a cruise ship could be a Sagittarian's dream gig. They make a living seeing the world and receive free food and accommodations on a floating resort while doing it. They could serve in the restaurants, work as a shop clerk, or entertain as performers or stagehands in the cruise ship's entertainment lineup. There are opportunities for Sagittarians of all work backgrounds on a cruise ship.
Traveling Photographer
If a Sagittarius is skilled with a camera, they might consider becoming a travel photographer. While news organizations need staff photographers, a Sagittarius would be happier freelancing. Travel photographers visit various locations (including tourist attractions), local events, large conferences, and high-end resorts. Every event will seem like a new adventure for a Sagittarius!
Athletic Recruiter
Sagittarians are not only travelers; they're typically avid sports fans and know the games inside and out. As an athletic recruiter for a college or professional sports organization, they can travel to schools and sporting events across the country to scout new talent.
Web or Software Developer
How about being a digital nomad who can work remotely from anywhere? Of course, it's the 21st century, and many remote careers exist. Still, careers like web or software development could be the perfect Sagittarian career. These professions lend themselves to remote work, meaning a Sagittarius is free to travel and work wherever they like — as long as they have a reliable internet connection.
Travel Writer
For Sagittarius, being a travel writer fulfills two of their deepest desires. Sagittarius enjoys discovering new places and telling others about them. They're also gifted storytellers and know how to present their latest adventure, so others are enticed and motivated to create their own experiences. Sagittarius will especially enjoy meeting all the people they come into contact with during their travels. And, because most travel writers work freelance, this career could be perfect for a free-spirited Sagittarius.
Human Resources Manager
A Sagittarius job as a Human Resources (HR) Manager is an ideal career choice. This is the type of job where they can leave their personal stamp on company culture. Because of their social skills, Sagittarians have no problem engaging face-to-face with employees and tactfully handling situations. Their nonjudgmental and easy-going personality makes them flexible for every concern that comes through their office door. A Sagittarius can also understand the protocols and legal requirements of companies.
On-Air Personality
A Sagittarius has all the skills necessary for an on-air personality gig. These minor celebrities work on television, radio, or other communication media. They do relevant research, write scripts, plan programming, give news reports, and interview guests. Sagittarians typically have personality plus; they're humorous, witty, creative, and fluent speakers who can carry an audience along. And, their friendly, free-spirited mentality is sure to keep the programming interesting.
Customer Service
Customer service is another great career option for a friendly Sagittarius. People who contact customer service need to be listened to, understood, and conversed with, and Sagittarius has that covered. A Sagittarian can make it easy for customers to tell them where they're having problems and then walk them through the necessary fix. A Sagittarius is naturally friendly, easy to talk to, and does their best to make everyone happy.
Sales
Sagittarius is a natural schmoozer, so a career in sales is well-suited for them. They're born with the gift of gab, and their openness and acceptance of everyone reveal their honest nature. People automatically trust them and find their enthusiasm inspiring. And, a Sagittarian's natural confidence assures others that they know what they're talking about. If you're a Sagittarius, it won't take much persuasion to convince potential clients to buy what you're selling.
Lawyer
A Sagittarius has all the traits necessary for a lawyer. They're great debaters and orators who are brutally honest and straightforward. They're interested in truth, have minds of their own, and are nonjudgmental, philosophical, and not overly emotional, all of which are required to be a good lawyer. Whether a Sagittarius specializes in criminal or corporate law, they're likely to have an outstanding reputation
University Professor
Learning and sharing their knowledge are two of Sagittarius's strongest attributes. Sagittarius is a perpetual student — they constantly hunger to know new things and share that knowledge with others. Students will love and be inspired by a Sagittarian's endless well of energy and imagination, as well as their enthusiasm for theories, research, and new discoveries. A Sagittarius will enjoy going to work each day, sharing something they've discovered, and interacting with their students. Sagittarius professors are more than teachers; they are visionaries who can motivate, excite, and inspire their students!
Political Scientist
An intellectual Sagittarius could find a career in political science fascinating. Political scientists study political systems' origins, development, and operation and how power and government interact with individuals and communities. Sagittarians are creative visionaries who always come up with original thoughts and ideas and ask big questions. Sagittarius would love continually exploring and experimenting with new ideas and staying current on political subjects to develop new and better ways to think about and address issues.
Publishing Manager
Sagittarius is talented when it comes to the written word. It's no wonder that many are drawn to the publishing world. A Sagittarius may write a book or two but most likely will find their greatest excitement in discovering new talent they can introduce to the world. Whether publishing books, website content, newspapers, or magazines, publishing can be a grand adventure for a Sagittarius who enjoys keeping information flowing.
How a Sagittarius Can Make the Most of Any Career
Regardless of what career a Sagittarius chooses, they can make the most of it by displaying their entrepreneurial mindset. Sagittarians should face challenges head-on and see and create opportunities. They should turn their ideas into action and trust that their unwavering self-confidence, optimism, and friendliness are going to be assets to any career they choose.
