+# Hiring Cog
+
+The Hiring cog is a specialized ticket system designed to streamline the application and hiring process for staff members. It provides a professional, form-based interface for applicants and a persistent, public-facing application button for ongoing recruitment.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Features
+
+-   **Multi-Role Applications:** A single `/hire` command provides distinct application paths for different roles (Staff, PM, HPM).
+-   **Form-Based Submissions:** Uses Discord Modals (pop-up forms) with custom fields to ensure all necessary information is collected from applicants.
+-   **Automated Ticket Management:** Automatically creates private ticket channels for each applicant and sorts them into pre-configured categories.
+-   **Persistent Application Button:** The `/work` command creates a persistent "Apply" button in a public channel for ongoing PM recruitment.
+-   **DataManager Integration:** Logs the timestamp of completed applications, making it compatible with the `DataManager` cog for automatic data purging.
+-   **Hybrid Commands:** All administrative commands work with both slash commands (`/`) and your bot's prefix (`[p]`).
+
+---
+
+## 2. User Workflow
+
+### For the `/hire` Command:
+
+1.  An administrator runs the `/hire` command in a channel.
+2.  The bot posts an embed with three buttons: "Staff," "PM," and "HPM."
+3.  A user clicks the button corresponding to the role they are applying for.
+4.  The bot instantly creates a new private channel for that user in the appropriate category.
+5.  The bot presents the user with a pop-up form (Modal) containing the specific questions for that role.
+6.  The user fills out the form and submits it.
+7.  The bot posts the user's formatted application into their private ticket channel for staff to review.
+
+### For the `/work` Command:
+
+1.  An administrator runs the `/work` command.
+2.  The bot posts a permanent message with an "Apply for PM Position" button to a designated public channel.
+3.  Any user can click this button at any time to begin the PM application process, which follows the same steps as the `/hire` workflow.
+
+---
+
