What would your pup do as a job in your current place of employment?
Erm, I really don't know why a scientist like Erik would ever leave Universities, except for to work at a research laboratory. If he was here, he would probably end up doing data analysis work, or else we always need more people doing bill inputting and validation.
As for Jack, probably just inputting and validation. His skills are in other areas, to be honest.

Oh my God. Gene would - ha, I am creaasing with laughter at the thought. Gene would be the most tyrannical head chef ever. And that's saying something, considering how tyrannical head chefs are as a rule anyway (aside: how do they feel justified in being this way? They cook food for a living. Big whoop.).
Of course, his menu would be rather spectacular, so people would let him get away with it. But still. TYRANT.

Gene would... have you ever seen "Chef", starring Lenny Henry? Like that. Exactly like that.
(I took a pair of foods prep and hospitality management classes at my local county college some years ago. They were designed for people who planned on going into the restaurant business. The instructor made us watch "Chef" and then said "okay, see how the lead character behaves? Don't do that.")

Knox would be doing my exact job. Right down to the grousing about it.
Kirk would be head of security. We'd be the only museum with phaser banks.
Gibbs is a pirate and would just be stealing the art. Which isn't actually all that funny, given that I dealt with the PR blowback from a theft 11 years ago. It was not fun at all.
Cy would be running the IT department. If only...
Charlie would write grant proposals. We wouldn't get any grants with his tendency to be long winded, but they'd be fun to read.
Howard would be on the board of trustees. In fact, I should make sure he gets to be on the board of some museum or other after the war. (Fun fact: the original Avengers mansion in the comics was Howard Stark's, and it's located where the real world Frick Museum is. So he obviously is on the board of the Frick.)

That image, for the record, makes me really, really happy.
AMASCUT SMASH PUNY COMPUTER!
Either that or pretend to be a good little girl and write faulty simulation software.

Clint would work downstairs in inspections (in a job that makes me go HOW DO THEY DO THAT every time I pass the room).
Dinah would be curating the Botany specimens.
Mel would be stealing from the mineral collections.
Mac would - ha, Mac would be organizing an ARMY OF VOLUNTEERS around the Halls.
Renee would probably be volunteering in the Anthropology department. Thanks to Charlie, she doesn't need payment.
Marguerite would probably be in public engagement, organising adult events.
Lawton and Theresa: Security. The most terrifying museum Security ever.
And Will?
Well, he's stuck in the Hall of Ocean Life, staring out of one of the dioramas.

Ellen would be building security. I mean, my company is a financial services company, but we're housed in the Newscorp building and every so often the place just goes security crazy; they'd have her on call for the days when they were interviewing high-profile folks at Fox. Shephard, too, and I can say that with some confidence because the building security firm hires former Marines.
Gordon would not be suited to working here at all. He might be able to manage as a security penetration tester for the building, though. They run those tests every so often.
Arcade has a canonical fondness for reading about failed socioeconomic theories and might theoretically be able to get a job as a commentator on Fox News as the voice of the liberals so they could claim to be balanced. Alternatively he would be on the building maintenance company's staff as an emergency physician.

Robo runs the company and as I have more pups than co-workers, everyone else is replaced too.
It is then the scariest electrical engineering firm in western Canada.

Two of mine (Olivia and Gaeta) would probably end up on security. Okay, there's no "probably" for Olivia -- it'd be a huge step down from FBI agent, but at least she'd get to carry a gun. Gaeta...he'd do well in security, but he might do equally well over in the Science Reading Room as a reference librarian. I'm not sure.
The Trickster would be a docent/tour guide, but the kind of tour guide who makes up completely implausible facts about the Library just to frak with the tourists. "And here we have the Minerva Mosaic, which was assembled from the fragments of Christopher Columbus' fleet when they landed in the New World..." (Sadly, considering we now have a line in our FAQ handouts that says, "Where can I see the Book of Secrets?", I am pretty sure more than one tourist would fall for that kind of stuff. *wry*)

Nikola would convert the whole office to run off the power generated by a hot cross bun and a stick in the ground.
Agnes would work in sales -- when a witch tells you that you need something, believe her.
The Doctor would be the speediest remote tech support person EVAR.
Xanatos would, naturally, just buy the whole company.
Kitai would handle security: you'll never see her until it's too late.
Quorra would do all of her work from inside the computers, of course, yielding the most interactive GUI available anywhere. (Quorra: Byte me, Siri.)

Watch me procrastinate:
Most of mine would work on the construction side of things. Hellboy, Logan and the Tick would specialize in demolition and heavy lifting, and I could see Bill as a superintendent.
It's not the same as leading a bunch of deputies, but he'd still be well suited for it.
Billy could swing a hammer, and knows a thing or three about stock pens, stalls and stables, so he'd be our equine facility expert.
Puss would be in marketing, going to conferences and explaining to everyone why they need the very best veterinary facility, and why they need to have us design/build it. No one can resist the kitty eyes.
Art would be back in the office working as a partner, explaining to clients that all the things the cat told them about costs money, and with their budget we can't do all of it all at once. Also, you really can't just change your mind every half second on where you want everything at. Once it's on paper that it! End of story!
Then end up back at the drawing board again anyways.
And, Pleakley would have my job of admin assistant, and all the other duties (which keep stacking up, bwah!) that come with it. Answering phones, doing paperwork, typing up proposals and greeting clients, he'd be the happiest one-eyed alien in a sundress ever.

Puss and Art in collusion! I love everything this chooses to be.
(Also: Puss for PR representative of all things ever.)

Beauford/Adult!Tyler would probably outright avoid doing cooking or banquet work, being one of those fabulously talented bartenders, but swearing off of all banquet duties. It's a resort so we tend to have at least one banquet every single weekend in the season. Wee young Tyler would just have to settle for earning a little extra $$ being tourist boat/water ride bait at the dock. Y'know those kids who live at the resort and tend to get all the free rides? The ones that encourage other kids to pester their parents into buying boat time? He'd be onna them.
Dot would probably run this entire resort better than the couple who currently owns it and while she'd be a task master, I'd probably like working for her!
Mother would end up on maitenence staff and probably be very good at keeping all of the coolers, freezers, and lawn equipment that regularly breaks down into decent working order. And be banned from talking to the guests.

Mark would be in the mail room or the print shop; it's about his speed. Given his history in food services, he could also work downstairs in the food court; the manager of the Quizno's is a much nicer guy than Mark's former boss at the Burger Mart.
Ahahaha. The prospect of diagramming the roles and responsibilities of an institutional review board and the administrative side(s) of human research has never been this hilarious.
→ Ben Wade would be my office's greatest professional challenge. He would be the guy on the other side of our paper trail here in the world of research compliance: He would forever be out of compliance, enrolling patients willy-nilly and then forgetting all about the ethical and legal repercussions. He would not use consent forms as they're intended; he would forge signatures and approval periods left, right, and center. He would straight-up lie about his enrollment, his study personnel, his funding, and even his research description. In fact, he would probably not have federal funding at all, and actually bankroll his own crazypants non-IRB-approved clinical trials with money he stole. He would basically be Dr. Frankenstein with an outlaw bent.
→ Gina Cowell would be our grant-writing maven extraordinaire. She would be awesome.
→ Kate Warner would be our chief financial officer; she'd actually probably work closest with the vice president for research here at the university, instead of physically in our building.
→ Ned Stark would be the executive chair for our four medical committees. He would be in charge of running these four medical IRBs with a fair but firm hand, managing egos and attitudes, providing the official sign-off on new and continuing research, and providing a go-between amongst the committee members, the doctors/researchers, and our office. He would wear his sword to every convened meeting for each committee, and probably intimidate the hell out of the doctors during their interviews/proposals. It would be the best.
→ Raylan Givens would be our chief compliance officer. He'd ensure that everyone's doing what they should -- and he would be the person that those who are out of compliance would have to sit down with. His primary adversary would be Ben Wade. I would bring popcorn and attempt to spy during those closed-door sit-downs.

BWAAAAAAAAAH! You could sell tickets to the Raylan-Wade show! XD

Well, considering I'm straddling the line of unemployment and self-employment, I'll go with the "writing" thing.
In-bar canon already has Ianto writing fairy tales. He'd make the transition to science fiction writer easier--he'd just change the details on things he's lived through.
The Green Man is more of an artist than a writer, since he came to writing and reading later, but he's a natural born story teller. he's write a lot of hippie-esque environmental fables. Or cookbooks centered around apples. With lots of butter. Or historical fiction! He'd have a grand time with that.
John is already a blogger. Canon! And Bilbo, of course, wrote There and Back Again...
Merlin, now...he'd write fantasy. maybe even one of those endless series we all love so much, with installments as big as a brick.
Stuart would have the most fun with what I do, the m/m romance. He would be ironic and florid, but secretly he'd get a kick out of it. And he'd be a pioneer, considering his time period.
Peter would write crime thrillers, drawing from his experience. (Now I'm picturing Neal as his beta reader or editor, and Peter would ignore a lot of his more unbelievable suggestions.)
Steve write comics in addition to drawing them. Canon!

Ben Grimm would either be head of Facilities or the owner of the cafe downstairs. If he ran the cafe downstairs I would be eating there ever day!
Hank would have to work in R&D.
Kate Kane would run security of course.

Follows-Chalk would excell at my job. He would cheerfully point out animal sign, his favorite views and any wild edibles he came across. He'd happily teach children all about fire building and how to set up shelters (and be bemused that the older ones don't know this stuff already). The only down side is that he would keep asking to look at their cell phones. And cameras. And watches.
Following a hilarious misunderstanding, Stitch would be put in an enclosure in the barn. This would result in the llamas climbing the walls to hide in the rafters.

I am unemployed at the moment. I also realized when I read this post that Annabelle Newfield has probably never applied for a job, EVER. (She was born into the circus and invited to join AEon.) I am rather envious.
Oh my, um, many of mine would not fit well at my job but they could find other things.
Will would be on Security for the University or possibly working at one of the community service organizations around or sports.
Sameth would be lost somewhere on North Campus in the Engineering department.
Charles would be a beloved professor of genetics or psychology, girls would swoon about him. He would actually understand how to do reserves.
Jane could do my job, though she would get rather sharp with patrons but she'd be a good librarian.
Moist would be working at the University under false pretenses, possibly somewhere in the financial side of things where he's got a scam going.
William would be an incredibly hard working student, who works for facilities as well as his degree.
Demeter would work for the botanical gardens, arboretum and make everything grow.
Tumnus would be somewhere in Special Collections with the rare books.
The Pirate King is one of those Michigan supporters that is a little worrying with their dedication.

Voodoo...would set one foot on campus and then wish there was a Scotty to beam him the fuck out of there.
