I want to see the list of all the "occupations" or "jobs", like Archmage, Assassin, Cultist, etc.
I supposed the tag NPC covered it, which it does, but it also includes all named NPC from all the adventures. I tried to play with other settings like the alignment (they're usually "any (non-xxx) alignment", but that does nothing relevant. I found the best success with the monster sub-type "any race", but there are still named NPC in there, though much less.
So how can filter the monsters to get only the occupation an NPC can have?
I set up this filter which might work for you. So you can replicate it yourself:
Tag: NPC
Sources: All non-adventurers (MM, PHB, VGTM, MTOF, MFF, GGTR, ERFLW)
Legendary: No
Has Lair: No
I hope that helps
You just need tag: NPC and source: MM and VGtM (like so).
PHB, MToF, MFF1, and GGtR don't have monsters with NPC tag. ERftLW only has 1 named NPC from a mini-adventure it contains. The only legendary NPC is warlord, and I think it is worth including. And no npc has a lair.

So yeah, 3 filters instead of 10.
Thank you very much! It's exactly what I wanted. :-)

Nice, big improvement. I was just going off assumptions about sources, but you've got the knowhow.

They aren't tagged as NPCs, but there are still some that I think should count in Eberron and Ravnica.
