Tips

usage
职介所 is the everyday short form of 职业介绍所 (zhíyè jièshàosuǒ) 'occupation introduction office'. In China these are typically government-affiliated or private agencies that match workers — often manual or service workers — with employers. In white-collar contexts you'd more often hear 中介 'agency' or 猎头 'headhunter'.
