A candidate is a name match on the registry, not a confirmed identity, and two candidates are ambiguity rather than a corporate structure.
Recruitment has long been a game of KPIs, cold calls, and commission-driven placements. But in 2011, Nadene and Steve Barretto decided to flip that script. Eight Recruitment was born with a single purpose: to turn the recruitment game upside down, or as we like to think, the right way up.
We saw a broken system—one that put sales over service, numbers over relationships, and speed over quality. So we built a different kind of agency—one that prioritises partnerships, not transactions.
🤸🏼♂️ What We Do (And Why We’re Different)
We specialise in recruitment, executive search, supported job searches, and talent advisory—but at our core, we’re all about long-term relationships.
That’s why our clients keep coming back.
Think of us as your in-house recruitment team—without the overheads. Our recruiters aren’t chasing sales, quotas, or commissions. Their only priority? Filling your role with the right person, not just any person.
And it works. We were a SEEK Small Recruitment Agency of the Year finalist—top 5 out of 2,000+ agencies. We’ve built a following of 35,000+ on LinkedIn and when we post jobs, people see them.
What Drives Us?
We don’t just have values—we live by them every day.
✅ We are an open book – Transparency is non-negotiable.
✅ What you see is what you get – No fluff, no gimmicks, just straight talk.
✅ What would your Nanna say? – We act with integrity, always.
✅ Be the change you seek – We challenge the norm and innovate.
✅ We’re all in this together – Collaboration makes us stronger.
Want to work with us?
Whether you’re hiring, job-hunting, or just want to chat about doing recruitment differently, we’re all ears.
