Functionally, the Hiring Bureau may be treated as the equivalent of an adventuring guild; in that independent contractors and mercenaries may take jobs frequently from requests posted at the Bureau. It also fulfills the role of an employment agency, matching potential employers and employees together. Visiting the local Hiring Bureau is the recommended first step towards employment for all inhabitants, whether contractual or long-term.
Common jobs include courier jobs (deliver packages safely and without damage), bodyguarding (escort people safely), pest control (kill a designated number of creatures on your way from A to B). More serious jobs include debt collection (find specific people on your way from A to B and make them pay what they owe - one way or another), and mercenary contracts (locate and either kill or capture specific people on your way from A to B).
Visitors looking for contracts, one-time jobs and similar gigs may use one of the public-use computers, whereas guidance and long-term employment are handled by visiting the Hirer's office.
