Job Hunting Chinese Worksheet (HSK 3)

Many learners can say 工作 (gōng zuò) in conversation but freeze when asked to write it by hand — the character strokes for career vocabulary rarely stick without deliberate practice. This free printable worksheet gives you ten HSK 3 job-hunting words in 田字格 (tián zì gé) tracing grids with pinyin above each character, so you can build muscle memory for the vocabulary from Week 15: Starting a Career.

What's on the worksheet

The page covers ten HSK 3.0 vocabulary words tied to finding work, bosses, pay, and first-job experience. You will trace and write characters including 工作 (gōng zuò, work), 找 (zhǎo, to look for), 公司 (gōng sī, company), 经理 (jīng lǐ, manager), 老板 (lǎo bǎn, boss), and 工资 (gōng zī, salary) — the core terms for talking about jobs, employers, and pay in Mandarin. These words match SayMei's HSK 3 lessons hub page, so you can pair handwriting practice with your speaking and listening work.

How to practice

Each word appears in guided 田字格 tracing grids with pinyin above. Start by tracing the guided strokes to learn correct stroke order, then write each character from memory in the blank grids below. Saying each word aloud as you write reinforces the connection between sound, meaning, and shape. You can print the page directly or download it as a PDF — no signup needed. If you want extra practice space, grab the blank printable 田字格 writing grid paper for free-form writing.

This worksheet suits HSK 3 learners, parents, and teachers who want structured handwriting practice for career vocabulary. Pair it with the printable "Hobbies & Fun" worksheet (HSK 3) or the printable "Campus Life" worksheet (HSK 3) to broaden your character-writing range across different topics.
