Questions, answered
Do recruitment agencies work?

Yes — a good agency shortens time-to-hire by working from a pre-vetted candidate network and screening against your brief, which is especially valuable for hard-to-fill or specialist roles.

Do recruitment agencies charge candidates?

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

How to contact recruitment agencies?

Reach out by phone, email or our form — employers with a role brief, candidates with a CV and availability.

How to address a cover letter to a recruitment agency?

Use the consultant's name where known; if not, a simple professional greeting is fine. State the role you want, your strengths and when you're available.

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.
