任职

• 拼音: rèn zhí
• 汉字拆解: 任 = 亻+ 壬 (carrying responsibility); 职 = 耳 + 只 (listening and responding = duty/post)

含义

To hold a position; to serve in an official role or capacity. Refers to occupying or being appointed to a post.

Common in formal, organisational, and governmental contexts. Often collocates with 期间 (during one's tenure) or specific job titles. Different from 就职, which emphasises the ceremonial moment of taking office; 任职 emphasises the ongoing state of holding the role.
