What are the sentence patterns of asking about occupation in English?

There are three sentence patterns for asking others about their work, which are suitable for asking in person.

1, what is your job?

What's your occupation?

3. What do you do?

4. What do you do?

There are three sentence patterns for asking about other people's occupations. Take her as an example:

What is she?

What is her job?

3. What does she do?

Asking about occupational taboos when socializing:

What is your job? (error)

Are you working now? (right)

Note: Is there anything wrong with your work? Yes, because if the person you are talking to has just lost his job or has no job, such a direct question will make the other person lose face.

The correct steps to ask about occupation are:

Are you working now? Are you working now?

Then you ask: Where do you work now? Where do you work these days?

Or what do you do? What line of work do you do?

I suggest you be more specific when answering such questions. Don't just say simple words like manager or secretary, be specific, so that others will have the desire to chat with you. When you know someone else's occupation, you can ask him specifically about his occupation and get involved in their relationship.
