Hello to you all on this beautiful day. With Andy Murray raising the roof at Wimbledon and temperatures set to soar as the week progresses, we are sizzling over here at Hatty's HQ!

On a more serious note it is disturbing to learn that the number of 16-24 year olds described as "Neets" - not in education, employment or training - is on course to be the highest since records began. A million young people without a job or college/University place after falling victim to the recession and it is anticipated that many young people could be "stuck in a rut" for some time.
Its not just Neets who feel stuck in a rut - many candidates are feeling the pressure of the current economic climate with many forced to face reduced working hours or redundancy.
Hatty Blue is determined to do everything we can to help! We are delighted to launch Hatty's Career Clinic which is an exciting new service offering a range of bespoke training packages to include CV preparation, Interview training, How to handle your Job Search, Changing career direction, Goal setting and more. For details of these please contact Jo on 020 7240 1813
