A lot of personal information about the disciples are unknown. Of the jobs mentioned for the disciples, four (Peter, Andrew, John, and James) were fishermen. Matthew was a tax collector. Simon was called a zealot, which was a political extremist, although not a job title. Even though Matthew was a tax collector, Judas Iscariot was the treasurer of the group, so he was probably more learned than most, although we don't know what job he had.

Luke was a physician, mathew a tax collector and the rest were fishermen.
Jesus' disciples
They all faithly remained Jesus disciples after his death.
Mostly the disciples were working at their various trades. Matthew was conducting his tax-collecting business when Jesus called him and James and John were fishing. We are not told in every case what the disciples were doing since the emphasis is on the call itself and on the one giving the call, and the response, not the occupation at the time of the person called.
The disciples viewed Jesus as the Messiah; the son of God.
Why did Jesus call the disciples?Jesus called the disciples because He wanted followers. The disciples (Jesus' followers) set an example for people back in Biblical times. The disciples were very helpful (most of them anyways.)
