I worked for a Recruitment Agency and we are not all bad. Believe me, if they had work, you would be working. They don't get paid without having people in assignments so they are not going to sit on available shifts and not assign them.
The problem at the moment is generally nervousness in recruitment. All employers know that come April it is going to cist far more to employ staff with the hike in employers NI that is coming. The whole market, regardless of industry is feeling a shift in the speed of recruitment.
Did you sign a Contract when yiu signed with the agency? Are you just registered with 1 agency? I would recommend you sign up with others too to keep your options open.
Employers are getting huge numbers of applicants for each role so you do need to try and get applications in as soon as roles go live if you are applying direct. . ..after someone has read 100 CVs, they do go blind.
I get it's frustrating, I really do but try not to let a bad experience with one agency get you down.
