Let’s solve each anagram one by one. We’re looking for real job titles that can be made by rearranging the letters in each phrase.

We’ll go number by number:

1. screen trap → rearrange → “carpenter” (yes! c-a-r-p-e-n-t-e-r uses all letters)
2. poets inciter → “receptionist” (r-e-c-e-p-t-i-o-n-i-s-t — check: p,o,e,t,s,i,n,c,i,t,e,r → yes, matches)
3. clear ice tin → “electrician” (e-l-e-c-t-r-i-c-i-a-n — let’s count: c,l,e,a,r,i,c,e,i,t,i,n → wait, too many i’s? Let’s try again… Actually, “cleaner it” doesn’t work. Wait — “electrician” has 11 letters. “clear ice tin” is 11 letters. Let’s spell: c-l-e-a-r-i-c-e-t-i-n → rearrange to e-l-e-c-t-r-i-c-i-a-n? That’s 11 letters but we have two ‘c’s and three ‘i’s? Original: c,l,e,a,r,i,c,e,t,i,n → that’s two c’s, three i’s? Electrician: e,l,e,c,t,r,i,c,i,a,n → also two c’s, three i’s? Yes! So “electrician” works.)
