The d20 Employment Encounter Table

Edmund's "d20 Modern" creation:

Roll 1d20 and add your "Resume Creation" skill (based on INT). Individuals with previous work in the field receive a +2 circumstances bonus. Check against the difficulty of the current job market.

• "IT'S RAININ' JOBS!": DL 10
• "Democrat in the White House": DL 15
• "OPEC is testy": DL 20
• "Dotcom crash": DL 25
• "Republican in the White House": DL 30
• "Bush in the White House": DL 35

If you succeed in the roll you must make a second roll, using your "Interview" skill (based on CHA) against the same DL. You receive the following Circumstance modifiers (note that Circumstance modifiers do not stack - take only the highest)

• Willing to work for Iron Rations only: +1
• Nonhuman affirmative action benefits: +2
• Fighter or Ranger veterans benefits: +3
• Willing to perform unsavory acts: +4
• Previously embezzled money from a major corporation: +5
• Know someone who knows someone who knows someone: +6
• Know someone who knows someone: +7
• Know someone: +8
• Can effectively blackmail prospective employer: +9
• Ex crack addict AWOL National Guard Pilot from Texas: +10
