What is a good recruitment agency?
Industry expertise: Good agencies understand your industry, the roles they are recruiting for and the needs of employers. They know exactly what employers are looking for. The agency should be able to help you put together a resume and cover letter that stands out and speaks directly to an employer’s needs.
Are recruitment agencies free?
They’re free to job seekers! Recruiters can open up a large network of clients who are looking for staff. Some job vacancies will only appear via a recruitment agency.

Can an agency not pay me?
Your agency can delay paying you while they get proof of the hours you worked, but only for a reasonable period of time. Your agency cannot refuse to pay you because your hirer’s unhappy with your work – this is a contractual issue between your agency and the hirer.
Do agencies have to pay minimum wage?
Yes. The National Minimum Wage (NMW) is the least that you can be paid for each hour that you work.
