Sec. 7. No agency shall send out any applicant, or collect any fee from any applicant without first having obtained a bona fide order for such employment. No charge nor advance fee of any kind shall be accepted until a position has been secured for the applicant by the agency or through the efforts of the agency. If any person fails, through no fault of his own, to obtain employment from the employer to whom he has been referred by an employment agent, or if, after having been engaged by an employer, such person is not permitted by said employer to enter upon the employment he was sent to perform, the whole amount paid by such person to the employment agent as a fee shall be refunded to him on demand. If such applicant shall have obtained a position or employment through such licensed agency, and shall voluntarily leave or abandon such position or employment, and without reasonable cause, he shall be entitled to receive no part of the fee paid by the applicant to the agency.
