When it comes to choosing what your character does, both their background, class, subclass, and overall abilities are based on what type of profession they have. Professions do not impact a character's determined way of play, the main abilities and the way a character fights are all up to describing them and laying them out in their character sheets.
But what professions does grant characters are so-called Advantage Proficiencies. Certain characters are simply better at some things than others, but this does not mean that, for example, a spellcaster can only cast spells and not use a sword. It simply means that if it were to come to a barebones swordfight, a warrior would have the advantage in that fight.
