Details Concerning Opportunities at Progent

Staff Work for Network Consultants, Desktop Service Specialists,
Security Experts, and Remote Support Professionals
Progent is seeking to hire full-time, results-oriented Microsoft accredited consultants with Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer certification; Cisco certified network engineers who have CCIE credentials; security professionals who have CISSP or comparable security certification; and high-end system architecture experts with a background in mobile access, wireless networking, fault tolerance, disaster recovery, information protection, and VMware. Progent also is looking for employees who can join our staff of desktop service technicians and off-site troubleshooting experts. Also, Progent is seeking experienced managers who can operate productively in Progent's fast-paced, virtual office culture.

By maintaining a team of talented and dedicated consultants, delivering world-class client services, and following a strong results-focused fee model, Progent has been able to increase our customer base dramatically while providing consulting services to numerous companies in the San Francisco area and throughout the United States. An advanced virtual office network, a common knowledge database, and a group strategy for problem solving have allowed Progent to retain a talented consulting team and a loyal customer base.

If you are an information technology professional with technical support experience, joining Progent or helping Progent's clients can expand your skills via cooperation with Progent's group of highly supportive, talented engineers. Progent's focus on providing network consulting and computer support to small organizations will offer you the opportunity to collaborate closely with key players and contribute appreciably to the success of dynamic businesses.

Progent is looking for technical professionals that have verifiable credentials in their special expertise. So, if you are a Microsoft expert, you should have your MCSE certificate. For Cisco professionals, have your CCIE or CCNP certificate. For network security, you should have you CISSP, Certified Information Systems Auditor, CISM, or other top security certifications. Naturally, we are familiar with “paper MCSEs.” However, simply because a certificate does not guarantee expertise is no justification for not having one. If you have mastered your field, then the majority of those certifications should be no challenge. The crux of the matter is that if you represent yourself to be a professional, then clients deserve to see certifications. Progent will market your skills, but you need to have basic certifications for us to work with. In case you are strongly against the idea of certifications, we can understand and honor your position, but you are probably not an appropriate fit.

Improve Your Abilities with the Best Technology and
Working with the Top Group of Computer Engineers
Progent's business climate will make you a more capable consultant by enhancing your technical knowledge and boosting the loyalty of your customers. Progent makes good on this commitment by attracting the best consulting talent for you to operate with, offering a state-of-the-art system infrastructure, running proprietary application utilities to deliver the maximum quality of service, and by optimizing proven business structures for finding and keeping clients.

The main factor that distinguishes Progent from other network support companies is the excellence of our consultants. Among the scores of consulting experts who have teamed with Progent, we have recruited the best expertise across a broad range of technical areas. Whether it’s Microsoft Windows, Cisco firewalls, corporate security, Macintosh, Linux, server virtualization, or other crucial application, we engage professionals who can enable you to be successful on major projects by combining the collective experience of Progent's group of experts.

To promote the success of our team, we invest heavily in providing the most powerful tools to do the work efficiently. Progent will exploit technology to an impressive extent and our state-of-the-art virtual office environment allows seamless communications, cooperation, and information sharing with fellow Progent team members — entirely from home-based or mobile offices. Consultants don’t waste time or lose revenue because of daily commutes to a conventional office building, and all driving you do for on-site client jobs is based on your own time table, not ours. The most attractive part is that much of Progent's consulting work can be done remotely, representing 100% productivity for billable time. In fact, some Progent staff do remote support only.

Progent's operations are geared towards responding quickly and effectively to customer needs via knowledge sharing and cooperative problem resolution. Even though Progent's consultants operate with a high level of freedom, resource allocation is unified, customer problems and solutions are carefully monitored, recorded, and organized for easy retrieval, up-to-date consultant schedules are published to facilitate team tasks and simplify problem escalation, and client satisfaction is continually monitored. We strengthen the feeling of cooperation through monthly workgroup conferences and regular corporate events.

The majority of Progent's consultants are located across California, however we are attracting a rapidly expanding team of network professionals throughout the United States. Our virtual office infrastructure eliminates regional boundaries that restrict the productivity of traditional company models. We complete the package by providing a comprehensive employee care program to promote the health and economic security of our employees and their families.

Just as we have awesome consultants, our sales and operations groups live up to the high standards that is Progent. These high-performance factors behind Progent’s growth are enabling us to target and land the scores of new customers we are now acquiring each month. Progent recently celebrated the delivery of services to our 1,000th customer. Try typing “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to see for yourself why Progent is also an effective marketing operation.

Possessing a passion for technical proficiency is a key for success with Progent. A career in consulting will drive you to learn more than you would in any other position in network technology. Being confronted by a steady stream of network challenges is what keeps consulting exciting. Customers choose consulting firms to do the “hard stuff.” Innovative projects, advanced implementations, vexing or chronic issues, and difficult migrations are the foundation for what we do every day. With us, you will not stall or be narrowly defined, as is sadly common for network professionals in traditional corporate jobs. You will wake up every morning enthusiastic about the opportunities to come.

On the way, you will work with some wonderful people, both by establishing strong client relationships and by working closely with other Progent consultants, where you will learn from and add to their success. Of course, technology is important, but we are a relationship-focused company from top to bottom. If you do not have strong people skills or like working with a diverse assortment of people, then Progent is in all likelihood not a good fit.

If all this seems right for you, we urge you to talk to Progent about our view of the future of network consulting.
