Questions, answered
How do recruitment agencies get paid?

Payment comes from the employer on a successful placement; jobseekers pay nothing.

How do recruitment agencies work in the UK?

In the UK, agencies place candidates into permanent roles and supply temp and contract workers. Permanent placement is a licensing-exempt activity; agencies are regulated by the Conduct Regulations 2003 (enforced by the Fair Work Agency), and worker supply into regulated sectors such as agriculture or food processing needs a GLAA licence.

Are recruitment agencies worth it?

They're worth it when speed, reach or screening matter; the fee is contingent on a placement, so an unfilled role costs you nothing.

How to join a recruitment agency?

To register as a candidate, submit your CV and the agency will screen your skills and experience, then match you to suitable roles and represent you to employers. Candidates are never charged a fee.

Do recruitment agencies need a licence in the UK?

Permanent placement is a licensing-exempt activity in the UK — we lead with REC membership and structured candidate vetting (skills, references and right-to-work checks). Crew Mentors operates under the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003, enforced by the Fair Work Agency. Worker supply into regulated sectors (agriculture, horticulture, shellfish and associated food processing) is covered by a GLAA licence.
