#90- Ron Pritchett’s Framework for Scaling Sourcing with Precision, Messaging, and Human Touch
Manage episode 513382965 series 3503023
SUMMARY
Ron Pritchett didn’t just move from staffing to health tech, he mastered both. Starting his career at TEKsystems in Charlotte and Nashville, he learned the grind of full-cycle recruiting and sales. From there, he transitioned to sourcing leadership roles at Dropbox, Marqeta, and now Cedar, where he leads a small but mighty team focused on engineering and G&A roles.
In this conversation, Ron breaks down what it really takes to scale sourcing efforts without sacrificing quality. With the flood of AI tools and automation, recruiters are struggling to separate the signal from the noise. Ron’s talk, set for day one of ERE San Diego, dives into how his team has doubled down on messaging, employer branding, and authenticity to stand out in an oversaturated market.
The episode is full of practical, hard-won advice: how to compete with FAANG for tech talent, why adding videos to outreach messages works, and how candidate experience can’t be faked. For Ron, the best recruiters don’t just push openings, they build relationships, own their message, and sell the full story of the company and team. This is must-listen content for anyone trying to recruit better, faster, and more human in a tech-heavy world.
RON'S BIO
Ron Pritchett is a seasoned recruiting and sourcing leader with a background that spans top staffing firms and high-growth tech companies. Starting his career at TEKsystems, Ron quickly rose through the ranks before making the leap to corporate talent roles at Dropbox, Marqeta, and now Cedar, a fast-growing health tech company. At Cedar, he leads a focused sourcing team that supports both engineering and G&A functions, with a strong emphasis on messaging strategy, passive talent engagement, and innovation.
Ron’s secret weapon? A deep empathy for candidates, sharp operational rigor, and a belief that sourcing is equal parts science and story. He’s also a proud family man and first-time speaker at the ERE Recruiting Innovation Summit in San Diego.
