How to absolutely RUIN game progression with assistants

This guide goes in depth on how to grind unfathomably large amounts of EXP, grow a free army of disposable clowns, and more!

The Setup

Getting right into things, your going to want to get as many assistants from the start as possible. Every class that isn't an assistant wont be contributing very much to the team, at least as a source of ungodly amounts of exp. The start will be fairly boring until you can reach your third and fourth levels respectively. You'll want a bare minimum of 5 assistants to begin, so I would heavily suggest getting as many player assistants as possible: or at least coercing the server owner into getting as many as you need until you've hit 5. If you want to hit level five as soon as possible, you can take starter quest. If you are extra dedicated, take mailman and use the camel submarine for maximum silliness.

So, you've hit level 3/4.

This is where the fun begins. Every single assistant who has hit level 3 should always pick indentured servant as their first talent, immediately. Ideally, if you have 5 assistants with indentured servant, you have broken through the first layer of the game. If you go up to your local HR manager, and if an assistant is "purchaseable", you will realize that they now cost absolutely nothing. Now, with these first 5 assistants, you'll want to be grinding more EXP until you can acquire peer learning on every single character while getting every single assistant at every outpost no matter what until you hit ~10 assistants.

Your fresh batch of assistants and what to do with them

Every single new assistant should now take playing catchup, starter quest, and eventually peer learning. After this has been done, take a mission with as much money gain as possible. One assistant will now acquire a total bonus of 650% experience gain. After this round has been completed and you have a singular assistant who is incredibly overleveled for where they are ingame, you will need to give every single old assistant playing catchup before anything else.
It is as this time when you should begin getting any other classes you care about.
Every single assistant will now have a 150% exp bonus constantly (except for one who will always gain 500% extra exp on top of their innate 150% exp bonus). This ended up giving me ~10 levels instantly after completing a 6k mark mission at level 6.

Congrats, you've now become an unkillable mass of infinitely disposable assistants and overleveling.

At this point, you've already destroyed any semblance of "GAME PROGRESSION" that may have tried to exist. If your looking for what to do with your hivemind of EXP bonuses, I would personally suggest looking at my other guide: Assistant's guide to graduating. This'll teach you about the power of assistant's graduation talent, which can help you and the worlds funniest hivemind about how to get ideally graduate assistants for the maximum power and overall crew benefits.

Not REALLY related to the Guide but, you can reap a large sum of Reputation for factions with one Escort mission due to how the Security Officer's talent "Protect and Serve" works.

To simply describe it, the talent stacks, really well.

Let's say the escort mission you've selected offer's a reputation of 5, one Officer with the talent doubles the reward to 10, another Officer will double it to 20 and another will double it to 40 and so on.

You should get around 4-5 Security officer's with that trait, since you'll be getting around a 16 or a 32 times multiplier on reputation gained, which will usually result in changing your reputation with the faction to revered almost instantly.

It should be mentioned as well, some traits from other Job's may prevent it from stacking correctly and end up either having it multiplied once or not at all.

(Tested it on Version 1.5.9.1, played in a Hosted Server)
