Thank you! that is very helpful. What is the difference for the usage of 恭喜 and 祝贺? I know 恭喜 is used often in New Years' wishes. Does 祝贺 usage have any relevant context, for example, used more in intimate relationships?

Also, they did not get a flight-related job, it is a management consulting position which was very difficult to obtain at the #1 firm in the world. Very proud. :)

@DJG2021 In most cases, you can use these two words interchangeably. On diplomatic and business occasions, 祝贺 is generally said. e.g., 祝贺康明斯中国 2020 年发动机销量突破 67 万台。Congratulations to Cummins China for engine sales exceeding 670 thousand units.

<p>My spouse just landed their dream job! They start next week and I am going to celebrate their first day.
Their dream is to be able to fly free, and high and to always be welcomed home in a warm and caring way. I want to express that, in addition to our unconditional support for them.</p>
<p>I have found several ways to congratulate them on a new job, including:
恭喜您获得这个工作
对你的新工作表示祝贺

My spouse just landed their dream job! They start next week and I am going to celebrate their first day.
Their dream is to be able to fly free, and high and to always be welcomed home in a warm and caring way. I want to express that, in addition to our unconditional support for them.

I have found several ways to congratulate them on a new job, including:
恭喜您获得这个工作
对你的新工作表示祝贺
祝您今后在工作岗位上大展鸿图！

But I really want to go beyond congratulating, in an authentic and meaningful way. Possibly referencing 瑤池金母, who represents "he protector/patron of "singing girls, dead women, novices, nuns, adepts and priestesses...women [who] stood outside the roles prescribed for women in the traditional Chinese family"" according to wikipedia.

Here is the best I've come up with, but I don't think it is very good. Would you please help me phrase my intentions?

加油！自由飞翔！
