They can handle money well and adapt to all types of situations easily. Taking into account all the positive and negative traits of a Scorpio personality, the best jobs for Scorpios include researcher, psychologist, care provider, writer, financial advisor, investigator, investigative journalist, and marketing specialist.

What equips a Scorpio to work in the care sector is their appreciation for loyalty and trust in their relationships—in both their professional and private life.

The hours invested in your education and your friendly attitude to your patients and/or clients will pay off.

2.7. Physician

A short attention span doesn’t help a Scorpio to study for exams but they won’t let that stop them. It takes years for every medical student to acquire all the knowledge and licenses they need to practice medicine. Doing long shifts in a hospital certainly challenges both nurses and doctors. A driven and hard-working Scorpio will cope with the hardship but must collaborate with others.

In recent years, several pieces of software and apps have been developed to connect patients and doctors online. If you meet the requirements, you may join Push Doctor through which patients can book video appointments. Are you a licensed vet perhaps? Check out InstaVet!
