I would say a career is like tools and a job is like a hammer and a screwdriver. In other words, a career is a broader focus say on the whole range of tools rather than on finishing a small task or perhaps repetitive same tasks. A career is a way of life which ideally someone follows with a passion whereas a job is just for making money to survive with.
