- Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Tell me, if you lived in the wizarding world, what type of job would you want? Some of you might have thought about this question a time or two already. Perhaps you want to be an auror at the Ministry of Magic? Or a professor, at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
You might think those are great choices, but they’re actually a bit limited.
There are hundreds of jobs to choose from in the wizarding world, and today, we’re going to take a look at a handful of some of the most interesting ones: from Troll Trainer to Magical Creature Breeder, and more.
Let's get in to it.

What type of wizarding career path would YOU go down? What video do you want next? Leave a comment a down below!
What career path would YOU choose?
Magizoologist
I'm curious about the Unspeakables.
My choice would be broombuilder.
Potions maker
I'm not the only one wanting a HP Series about Bill Weasley adventures curse-breaking amazing and hidden places right?
LOL The second that I read that the Indiana Jones theme music started playing in my head. I'd want it to start when he was still in school, how he picked his job and how he went about getting it and becoming as good as he is. I think that'd be really fun to watch. Like he did it originally to get away from his mom but ended up loving it, something like that.
Also would be nice to have a movie about the marauder’s
Yes.
Ur right
I want that too
The fact that hair dressing, and magical cooking or even broom repair to name a few were not explored is ghastly, much the same with magic custodians or plumbers. Then again most people in Harry Potter wanna be cops which is weird
I know right. All the jobs in the magical world seem to be either in the service of the Ministry or St Mungo’s… Fred and George were an exception.
I always figured that kind of stuff would be carried out with a wand
Wtf?? You have a weird interest sir. Those are not jobs, but they all can be done by magic. But for those that can afford it. It would be done by house elf. By all means do the job yourself i doubt you'd get paid for it.
Filch is tech a custodian
I'd love to be a Master of the Custodial Arts
I hadn't put that much thought into it before. After seeing this, you've convince me that curse breaking is what I would want to be. It being lucrative is nice, but what really sells it is that it probably the closest that there is to being "Magical Indiana Jones".
LOL Would you get the hat and a magic whip too? If you do, don't forget the cooling and sticking charms so that you never overheat and/or lose it like Indy almost always seems to do. Make sure your bag looks like his, but it tricked out better then Newt's or Hermione's were.
Does anyone know if there's a translation charm or something to help when in new places? Would come in VERY handy for the "Magical Indiana Jones'" out there.
Yeah, but this may be more dangerous than being an auror.
Do a video on magical jobs that involve interaction with Muggles. I can think of a few:
• Obliviator
• Magical Accidents and Catastrophes Squad
•Auror (Dark wizards often end up in the Muggle world. They must go their and arrest them.)
• Hogwarts Professor (As they have to meet with Muggle-born kids and their Muggle families.)
• Minister of Magic (Has to meet with the Muggle Prime Minister.)
I'd want to be a magical portrait painter!
Like the ones in Dumbledore's office, where the subject can impart some of their knowledge and personality!
I’m a professional dog trainer by trade and I’d have to go with Magizoologist...each magical creature has their own preferences, capabilities and drives. I was shocked and dismayed when I saw the dragon guarding Gringotts...there are FAR better ways to train and house creatures...any creatures, magical or non-magical. Positive punishments are so unnecessary 😎
Unless it’s a dementor lol
Some of the job kinda seem like you might need another job just to help out. Like your main job is a Magizoologist but you have a side hustle as a Kneazle breeder or do what Newt did and write books. Or do something completely different like from being a Magizoologist, like Herbology, though that might also help with your main job.... but still.... Or being a bookseller or accountant on the side?
@Stephen's Epic World the porblem is that the dragon in Gringotts is after Newts time when they should have known better then to treat a magical beast like that so magizoologist is still greatly needed even in present day in the wizarding world
I certainly would love to hear more about the various other careers of the wizarding world and the economy and lifestyle and society in general in fact. So yes please! More of this!
I agree, also my career choice would be a combination between Alchemist & Troll Trainer who in free time also studied/experimented with Potions:)
When I worked as a maintenance man at a girls high school, for some reason I was nicknamed Professor Boyes, care of Magical Creatures teacher. I thought that was pretty cool. I've always preferred the company of animals over people, so I'd be the magizoologist.
I absolutely love all of your videos, it's so funny that every time one of your videos come out I creek out when I see it haha. Love you man, also I would love to be a wand maker or a potions master.
Thanks for all of your support! Good choices ⚡
I'd love to hear more about other magical careers and jobs! I love hearing about what an everyday life for witch or wizards would be like! For myself, I wouldn't mind doing something with magical plants/ingredients growing, harvesting, or gathering for potion making or woods and cores for wands!
You want to be a Herbologist, just not a teacher. You could provide stock to the potion shops and sale wholesale direct to clients.
I’d love to be a healer. I find magical healing really fascinating even if we don’t see it in great detail in the series.
I would like to be a shopkeeper at Hogsmeade, anything really such as a novelty shop or a bakery.
I'd love to be a healer, but I've always been fascinated by the wandmakers. I'd love to hear how you'd learn to become one.
"Distilling an acid that was strong enough to dissolve anything"
Good luck trying to find a container to store it 😂
I need more options!!!!!!
Magical Historian would be fun
Man... Your titles are next level! You always find unique questions that makes us really want to know the answer to them. Anyway keep it up, because if the questions stayed like this you'll never run out of viewrs!
Glad you like them!
I find wandmaking very interesting.
1. Auror
2. Wand maker
3. A worker in the department of magical transportation
4. Quidditch Pro
5. Magical creature breeder.
A cashier or a goblin banker
I wonder how much you could make, doing underground troll fighting? I bet there would be a great market for that and enough to make a goblin jealous.
I was always a little disappointed that none of the characters, main, secondary, or whatnot ever went into wand making. I realize it's highly specialized and there weren't many wand makers. But I was always surprised that no one wanted to at least try to apprentice in after the surprise twist of an all-powerful wand with skeptics like Hermione having to accept such a thing as something more than a fairy tale.
sometimes I wan‘t to watch an harry potter movie but then I start watching your vids instead and I just can‘t stop.
Keep up the great work, I love harry Potter and your videos are like an extension to my so loved harry Potter world.
Glad you like them!
If this an option than I’d choose to be in the entrainment industry trying to educate nomaj’s on wizard culture or a wizard ambassador to the muggles.
Master wand maker would be interesting 🧐
For me, working at Ollivanders learning the art of wand making is where I would be
I don't think I'd go down any of these stated paths, possibly alchemist as something that always hangs me up is that whenever alchemy has the spotlight in fictional media, they always frame the creation of something that turns lead (one of the least pure metals in alchemical texts) into gold (one of the most pure), and then leave it at that when there was one metal that held an even higher regard than gold when it comes to alchemical purity: platinum, the most esteemed metal that is virtually never touched in media. The only example that I can think of is in Legend of Kora where they make mechs out of platinum to thwart metal benders because it's too pure for them to manipulate.
If I was to be any of the jobs you listed, it would probably be an alchemist trying to go that extra step and find a way to turn other metals into platinum.
Other than that, I think I'd be most interested in spellcraft, and the roll language plays. Not just the aspect of magic comes from your native language's root language, but what about the root language of other languages, could that work? Or the root language of a root language, given the area where Latin and Greek come from, would saying the spell in Linear B, or even Linear A work? Some media (mostly DC comics as far as I'm aware) depict the verbal component of spells to be a command in your native language, but said backwards, whether "no a drow yb drow sisab" (on a word by word basis) or "ecnetnes elohw eht" (the whole sentence), does that work in the Harry Potter universe? What about the verbal component of the spell being a command said in an ancient language backwards?
My career path would be trying to answer these questions.
I like those. I certainly agree with the alchemist part. I would also think that for all the potion brewing and other magical activities, metals have to be transformed and that sounds like alchemy for me
Magical candy shop owner.
Yassss
I would love to hear more about this I found it quite interesting!
I always wanted to work at Ollivanders or be a Qudditch Chaser that played for the Ballycastle Bats
Thank you for the great content 🙏
Congrats on 500k !!!
I would just go rogue and use magic to improve life on the muggle world via subtle social manipulation
I would try to be a quidditch player and use the winnings to fund my travels to be a Magizoologist. 😁
Fantastic video keep it up your doing amazing job
Wow what a creative video! U r the best UA-camr
Gosh, thank-you so much ☺
I would be a wandmaker
I still would either be a professor, or I think what I would really want to do is be a Wandmaker. I think the wand lore is fascinating and I love reading on wand woods, and wand cores. I would love to experiment with that!
Quiddich player
I wouldn't mind working as a sales clerk at Weasley's Wizard Wheezes. I actually have some experience in sales. When I was kid my family sold collectable toys in the flea market. Plus I like the Weasley family except Percy.
Amazing you should make a second video of this👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🔥🔥🙏🏾🙏🏾
Someone’s gotta paint those headmaster portraits.
If I could choose a wizard job I would chose to be a wandmaker.
I think I'd like to run a candy shop just for fun and to make everyone happy or a pub just for the crazy Wizarding stories you would hear.
I would want to come up with enchantments for objects. There are all kinds of cool items like sneakoscopes, wizard's chess kits, and omnioculars, and I'd bet that creating these items would be like electronics engineering in the muggle world.
This! I missed this in the list.
I would like to be able to heal animals, and help them find homes with people who will do their best to make sure that the animal(s) are happy and healthy and to know that they are loved and carded for
😊
Always wanted to be a Curse Breaker, specialising in magical animals. In other words, I wanted to be a Curse Breaker, but I'd rather do Care of Magical Creatures than Arithmancy in my 3rd year (though I believe Arithmancy was only required for the Gringotts job application).
Addition: I'd also do Study of Ancient Runes, but definitely not Divination, as a second 3rd year subject choice.
A Dragonologist would be a dream job for me, but I'd be happy owning an inn, cooking for travelers n local wizards! Money isn't everything 😉🧙♀️
As a programmer I wonder if there are jobs that involve enhancing objects to behave certain ways? Like say someone wants to charm their toys to come to life and engage with them but don't know how, could they hire someone to do it for them but for a fee?
Mabe inventing spells works kinda like making a programme?
Security spell specialist. Many spells work like conditional commands in programming, especially in the security field.
There is metal charmer, but as the name suggest it only focuses on metalic stuff.
Give us more of these career videos!
I’ve been a massage therapist for 18 years and a reiki master for 12 years, so, I think I would be in the healer business. Thank you for this video.
Love it!
I would do something with creating and repairing tapestries. My lifelong research would be dedicated to solving the mystery of the invisibility cloak and trying to create one.
great video thank you yes Please more Job Videos
The two careers that I'll do are Quiddich and being a Magizoologist like Newt Scamander.
Seeing how I decided to study chemistry and works as a Lab Assistant, it is very likely that I would go in the direction of a potioneer. Going by the variety of potions in Harry Potter, it does strike me as an interesting field to work in (though odds are, if I had a teacher like Snape, he killed any interest in the field). Magizoologist would be a fine second option.
Assistant*
@@di3486 Thanks, I often miss that in translation (from dutch to english). I will corrected it.
@@BjornV1994 To your merit, English is definitely easier to learn than Dutch!
@@di3486 No argument there, it is just that even in English, I still think in native tongue sometimes, particularly with words that mean the same and have very similar spelling.
Honestly if I could have a job in the wizarding world, I'd probably want to be a craftsman. It may not be as glamorous or lucrative as curse breaking, but I bet I could make a beautiful broom or quill, and I would seem insignificant to dark wizards like Voldemort so I could help the good guys low-key
I'd definetly would want to try to be a dueller. Possibly a breeder on the side in case the 1st career doesn't earn me enough. I certainly wouldn't mind a part 2 video with this topic.
i was always drawn to either the healing part of it but also magical cooking is still on my top spot of my list
I'm sure I'd be doing what I do in the muggle world. I'd be a musician. Maybe even teach music at Ilvermorny, perhaps.
I would like to be a magical painter, the moving and talking paintings have always seemed special to me.
over the course of the career’s in the wizarding world these career’s find what is interesting in title of it that’s cool and would be interested, dragon tamer, unspeakable, azkaban security guard and potioneer, but should i pick one i was thinking potioneer, but i think a azkaban security guard sounds better, plus azkaban is awesome. i will not be afraid there!
I'd want to be the new history professor at Hogwarts. I like history.
I don‘t think the current one is likely to retire soon…😅
@@Nico-wg5jo I reckon he should, and in a hurry. History is a living thing. It's a tapestry that is constantly being added to every second of existence. Binns sucks at it IMHO.
If I didn't have vertigo, I'd love to be a quidditch seeker
Video idea for you to do:
What additional effects do spells have that are not seen in the movies? For instance, what else can the patronus charm do besides ward off dementors?
Cruse Breaker sounds fun also magical trader or potion master nice as well.
I'd like to work with Mr weasley or become a magizoologist like newt.
Enchantment charms engineer by day...Quidditch enthusiast by night...yeah...sounds about right
I think I would love to be a Magizoologist!!! I’ve always loved being out in nature and I’ve always loved animals!! I would really love to see a vid done on more careers of the wizarding world!!
Department of waste clean up is mega bucks.
Here are the 10 magical professions in the form of a list (I do recommend watching the entire video for detailed descriptions)
Activist
Alchemist
Apparation examiner
Bartender
Magical Creatures Breeder
Curse-breaker
Dragonologist
Healer
Duellist
Troll trainer
Professions which weren't in the video's list
(+ Auror
+ Professor
+Quidditch Player
+Quidditch commentator
+Business/ shop owner
+ Wandmaker)
There would only be one career path for me and that’s Dragonologist. I love dragons and in real life I work as a vet nurse
It would be so cool to be an Unspeakable in the Department of Mysteries
Professor at Drumstang!!!!
I always thought I'd go along the Alchemist or Healer route, but I think a Potions Mistress would also be fun, and then open my own apothecary.
Wanna work for the Daily Prophet. Basically write a few lies and then you’re done
I'd want to work in the muggle world in a office job
I’ve always wanted to be a curse breaker and travel the world ridding places of curses and finding treasure. The only downside would be that my boss is a goblin....
I'd love to drive the Knight Bus!
Interesting topic and good video. I do miss the more mundane jobs, more manufacturing jobs, what probably most people do, although I understand you do a lot quirky jobs.
Alright so I knew there was some goofy jobs in the wizarding world…
But *troll trainer?*
I love being an Aurror. The best dark wizard catcher.
I think being a treasure hunter and using my powers to track down magical artifacts would be pretty cool.
Uh, Idk, man, it’s right down a line between Curse-Breaker and Dragonologist, for me. And Duelist, along with Troll Trainers.
I have thought about this from time to time. I would like to be a Professional Quidditch Player the position would be Seeker. I'm rather small so it works to my advantage. I also wouldn't mind learning more about the department of Mysteries too. After watching this I kind of like the sound of Curse Breaker. They all sound exciting
I'd probably go for:
- wandmaker
- curse breaker
- unspeakable (researching ancient magic)
- professor study of ancient runes
- broom maker
Not necesseraly in that order depends on my experience in classes.
After I read the Harry Potter books, especially the last one, I thought it would be interesting to be a wand maker. Then I thought what courses would you need at Hogwarts? Herbology, so you'd know what trees to carve them from. Care of Magical Creatures so you can obtain things like unicorn hair and phoenix feathers for the wands' cores. Charms and Transfiguration so you know spells very well.
Nice
How about musician? I would love a video on The Weird Sisters.
I'd want the same thing I want now, just magical. I've always wanted to do wildlife rescue and relocation
I know Hogwarts Mystery is leading us towards a career as a curse-breaker, but I'd rather be a healer.
If I get to choose, I want to be a wandmaker
I'd just run a cleaning service for muggles using magic. I come in while nobody is there, wave my wand, walk out and collect my money.
As an alchemist I would try to make more rare earth elements. Or try to build stuff like Molly her clock, so I would definitely try to study alchemy.
I'd want to be a healer.
I've wondered how many wizards and wiches lead muggle lives. Or maybe a salesman of normal muggle items to the wizarding world (furnature, kitchenware, etc)
Definitely a curse breaker 📖🪄💀
What about architecture and the making of furniture? What are the wizards using to built houses and tables etc?
I'm surprised potion makers, gardeners, and gatherers didn't make the list. The potions were massively useful and so many ingredients were said to be rare. You'd probably be paid well.
I would definitly want to be a professor for potions making
I wonder about jobs such as music or architecture... Or are these fields branches or variants of charms?
