Questions, answered
How to join a recruitment agency?

Joining as a jobseeker means registering your CV and availability so the agency can match you to client vacancies.

How do recruitment agencies get paid?

The employer pays the agency — a percentage of salary on permanent placements, or an hourly margin on temp and contract hours. Candidates are never charged for being placed.

How to address a cover letter to a recruitment agency?

Address it to the named consultant if you have one, otherwise use a polite general greeting. Lead with the role or sector you're targeting, your key skills, and your availability — keep it concise.

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.
