/* ===== HIRE PAGES (commercial "staff augmentation — hire a developer to work
   with you") ===== Shared stylesheet for all /hire/* pages, loaded alongside
   learn.css so Hire pages reuse the same design DNA (glass cards, common
   header, FAQ accordion, tilt-card grid, leads-list, hero-with-visual layout)
   without duplicating any of it. This file holds what's genuinely new to
   Hire: the shared scene/glow backdrop and each page's unique hero visual
   family. Cyan accents always use var(--accent-color) — never
   var(--primary-light), which resolves to dark navy (#132b45) and is the
   exact bug fixed in build.css. */

/* ===== SHARED TRUE-3D HERO SHELL — .dc-hire3d-* =====
   Real CSS 3D (perspective + rotateX/Y + translateZ), shared by all 18 Hire
   hero visuals: a tilted glass panel floating in perspective space, with a
   rim-light sheen, a looping glint sweep, ambient depth particles, a floor
   shadow + glossy reflection, a gentle continuous float/drift so the scene
   never sits still, and a reusable ripple/badge/counter-flip vocabulary for
   each page's "moment of completion." Every page's PANEL CONTENTS (what's
   inside the tilted panel, and what animates into it) stay unique per page
   — this shell only supplies the 3D stage, lighting and camera language.
   perspective lives on -stage-wrap (a static flex container) and the
   -stage itself only ever receives a STATIC transform (the responsive
   scale in the media queries below) — never an animation — so scaling never
   collides with .dc-hire3d-world's own continuous drift animation. */
