How do you ask someone for her or his occupation? We can ask in different ways. We are going to review three main questions: 1) What do you do? (conversational) 2) What do you do for a living? (conversational) 3) What’s your occupation? (information) You can use any of these questions. The only difference is that number 1 and 2 and more common in conversations and number 3 is more for information such as when you fill in a form. Articles a/an Remember that when we answer these questions we have to use a/an before the occupation when it is SINGULAR. Remember to use an before vowels or vowel sounds.
