It’s a big day in the Hatty Blue office… Today, we have joined the likes of Barack Obama, Stephen Fry, Boris Johnson, and Britney Spears by creating a shiny new Twitter account. Whenever a hot new permanent or temporary job comes onto our books, a member of the team will log into the account and post a lightning speed alert to all our faithful followers.

The Hatty Blue team have been hearing more and more about this Twitter lark. Today, the Guardian newspaper described it as ‘a megaphone for the planet’. On Saturday, the first marriage proposal was sent through the site (and promptly accepted, through a Twitter update of course). On the 2nd February, Stephen Fry attracted his 100,000th follower – he is now nearing 200,000 (only Barack Obama has more…).

So – what exactly happens? The Guardian explains – “Twitter is a social networking service that combines elements of blogging and texting by allowing its users to send updates to their friends (or "followers") via the web or mobile phone in messages (or "tweets") of up to 140 characters each. Unlike Facebook, anyone on Twitter can follow your updates.”

Fancy following Hatty Blue? It’s simple. Click on this link and press on the tab to follow us - http://twitter.com/hattyblue. You’ll be asked to create an account, which will take just a few seconds. Make sure you set up your mobile to receive the alerts – or simply check your homepage every day for a newsfeed of our exciting new positions!

It’s been a week of slippery pavements and nightmare journeys into work. As Friday draws to a close, London is changing from a stunning frosted white to a depressing murky brown. With money worries gripping the capital, we wouldn’t blame you for feeling a little down in the dumps as the weekend arrives.

Hatty Blue, however, has some exciting news to report to all our candidates. After pitching for new business back in December, we have just been selected to recruit for cosmetics giant L’Oreal!

Beauty is a great industry to be involved in at the moment, with brands reporting growing products despite the economic downturn. It makes sense, of course. While we were splurging on new cars, expensive holidays, and designer handbags in 2008, we’re now spending our well-earnt cash on the smaller things that make us happy – like a creamy lipstick, an innovative mascara, or a luxury shampoo.

We fully expect the jobs from L’Oreal to start flooding in, so keep checking our Facebook page and blog for updated job descriptions. Until then, have a scan below to see if any of our new jobs take your fancy. If you think you’re the person for the job, email your CV to hello@hattyblue.co.uk.
