There are 3 things you can compliment anyone on:

Whatever the current topic or question reminds you of,

3. Mutual Interests
Ping for interests that might be mutual.
If you think she likes traveling, bring up a recent trip of yours.
If you think she is a sports fan, shoot a sports question.
Crucial is that it is a real interest of yours to build the connection further.

Instead of asking if she likes her job, ask her why she decided to become one.

5. Be A Good Listener
Have eye contact while she is talking and make her feel like she is heard.
Also allow yourself to laugh.
As long it’s sincere, it lightens up any mood.
