Practice question: Non-transferability

Multiple Choice Medium

Practice question

Agency A lets an unrelated company advertise and recruit using A's license number while that company controls recruitment and collects the fees. Does A's consent cure the problem?
  1. No; consent does not authorize another entity's direct or indirect use of A's license.
  2. Yes; a license holder can create any sublicense.
  3. Yes; publication of a genuine number makes every user licensed.
  4. Only a worker can object, so the rule is inapplicable.
  5. The arrangement becomes lawful if receipts name both companies.
