When it comes to recruitment, what you want from an Agency is for them to make your life easier, which in turn saves valuable time and money for a company. We have found that Hatty Blue Recruitment is just such an Agency, they are affordable, flexible and we trust them to send us the right candidates. We have found that they follow the brief given to them from us as a client. They take the time and effort to learn about the ethos of a company which enables them to take this into account when selecting the right candidate for a role. We have felt that they continuously provide excellent service and are able to also provide temporary staff at short notice and when needed.

I have worked with Hatty Blue for 12 years now and I am always impressed with the efficient service I receive. They supply our temps for multiple parts of the business including reception, hospitality and our despatch team. The calibre of candidate is always exceptional. The Hatty team are always contactable, especially for last minute cover which is extremely helpful to our business. Not only that but it feels likes there is always someone with a smile at the end of the phone!

I have been using Hatty Blue since their company started more than 12 years ago. They have always had exclusivity on any support staff recruitment (both temporary and permanent) from my time at Geo Networks and now at Landways. They are always passionate about finding the right candidates who fit our culture and values – they would call them “Geo/Landways types”. With my responsibility for the administration team, staff in my team (placed through Hatty Blue) would, in most cases, not stay very long in my team but get moved around the company as they developed their careers. In both Landways and Geo, staff placed by Hatty Blue have moved to Sales, Marketing, Customer Service, and Project Management. In one particular case, we sponsored someone placed by Hatty Blue to do her Engineering degree who then went on to be Geo’s most sort after Sales Engineer and is now Commercial Director of a start up. I trust Hatty Blue explicitly with the recruitment of our support staff.

I have been working with Jo Donelan and her team at Hatty Blue for many years. Jo just ‘gets’ our business so well and she knows exactly the right candidates to fit in with our team, values and culture. Over the years I have recruited outstanding candidates into our support and marketing divisions and on occasions when I have needed temporary staff at short notice Hatty Blue have provided great temps who can ‘hit the ground running’ which provides piece of mind at the most busy of times. Every year we also participate in the Oxford Media & Business School work experience scheme which is a programme Hatty Blue have been running very successfully for 12 years. I would, without hesitation, recommend Hatty Blue to businesses and equally to candidates wanting to connect to a first class recruitment agency.

I have a long standing relationship with Hatty Blue, one as a candidate and client for the last 9 years. From the moment I met them they have been in a league of their own. I have yet to meet such a professional team who understands their candidates, clients, the industry and what you want to achieve in the way Siobhan and Jo do with their friendly hardworking and enthusiastic team. One of the many reasons which set them above the rest is that they truly care; no one is just a number/target which ensures the perfect match. I always and will continue to recommend Hatty Blue to friends and other organisations.

Sam worked as our Head of Talent for three years whilst I was MD of The Leading Edge in London. During this time Sam worked tirelessly and diligently to attract, on-board and support some of the best people I’ve ever worked with. Her understanding of the business needs, together with a creative yet considered approach makes her a true talent expert.

Time and time again Hatty Blue have provided us with an expertly tailored series of candidates. You can tell they care deeply about finding the best person for the role, and are always amenable to feedback. The pandemic hit right before we were about to shortlist for a new hire and Hatty Blue were able to seamlessly replicate their excellent service virtually. It was a bit intimidating conducting all our interviews via video call, but Hatty Blue took care of it all, making sure candidates were well prepared beforehand and the whole process was incredibly smooth. It's great to have such a dedicated team helping you through the often difficult process of recruitment.
