Questions, answered
How do recruitment agencies work?

For employers we source and vet candidates; for jobseekers we match you to suitable roles and put you forward — at no cost to the candidate.

Do recruitment agencies charge candidates?

No. The employer pays the fee; candidates are never charged to register or be placed.

How much do recruitment agencies charge?

Permanent placements are charged as a percentage of the candidate's salary; temp and contract is an hourly margin. We quote up front with no hidden fees.

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.
