Preliminary help needed

I plan to transfer the following site to WordPress and need some advice before proceeding: http://www.tempforcestaffing.com
It will have 3 different sections each will have a secure login and a blog page. It will have a landing page where the employer / job seeker choice is made and then a cookie is set to deliver return visitors to their area. It will have a jobs plugin where employers will list available jobs. Possibly Buddy Press will be used for the in-house staff section “blog” or community.
1. How to I achieve the 3 section/secure login and blog page for each?
2. How do I set that cookie from the landing page?
3. Do you have recommendations on the jobs plugin? (I’ve reviewed several)
4. Will Buddy Press present any complications with the above?
5. Can you see any other potential or certain snafus that I need to be aware of?
I have created several WordPress sites, but none this complex. Your input will be greatly appreciated.

1) I would suggest MultiSite – http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Create_A_Network

That would make three separate sites 🙂

4) Only in that BuddyPress is GENERALLY sitewide, so you may need private groups or the multi-network BuddyPress plugin which I can’t find igth now…

I followed your link and found this note toward the bottom:
User Access
By design, all users who are added to your network will have subscriber access to all sites on your network.
Stupid question, I’m sure, but what does that mean?

It means they can read the other sites.

You can adjust that same as any other WP site: http://ww.wp.xz.cn/extend/plugins/members/ for example. Activate it per site on your network, and make a new user role. Only people in that role see anything.

Thank you so much. I read that you don’t consult. I would be a lot calmer about this work if I had the backup of a consultant. I have emailed 2 I found on the ww.wp.xz.cn list but neither has responded. Do you know of a good consultant who would have time for an unknown amount of work on this job?
