Additional Facts About Work at Progent

Fulltime Work for Network Consultants, Desktop Support Technicians,
Security Consultants, and Remote Support Technicians
Progent wants to hire full-time, results-driven Microsoft certified engineers with Microsoft MCSE or MCSA credentials; Cisco certified network engineers with Cisco CCIE credentials; security consultants who have CISA or comparable security credentials; and advanced network architecture experts with a background in mobile access, wireless networking, service continuity, disaster recovery, data preservation, and virtual servers. Progent also is looking for employees to work on our staff of desktop service technicians and remote troubleshooting experts. Also, Progent is hiring talented administrators able to perform effectively in our fast-paced, virtual office culture.

By supporting a team of talented and dedicated professionals, delivering attentive client care, and offering a competitive value-based fee structure, We have managed to expand our customer base rapidly while providing professional support to hundreds of businesses in the San Francisco area and across the U.S. An advanced virtual office environment, a shared information base, and a group strategy for problem solving have helped Progent to maintain a skilled consulting team and a satisfied customer list.

If you are a network professional with troubleshooting expertise, joining Progent or helping Progent's customers can enhance your knowledge through cooperation with Progent's staff of highly supportive, talented engineers. Our commitment to delivering information technology consulting and technical support to small and midsize organizations will offer you the opportunity to work closely with decision makers and add significantly to the success of exciting businesses.

We are hiring consultants that have recognized credentials in their technical focus. So, if you are a Microsoft expert, you should have earned your Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer credential. For Cisco consultants, have your Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert or CCNP credential. For security, you should have you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, CISA, CISM, or one of the other top security certifications. Of course, we are familiar with “paper MCSEs.” Notwithstanding, the fact that a certificate does not ensure excellence is no reason for not owning one. If you know your field, then most of these tests should present no challenge. The point is that if you represent yourself to be an expert, then customers expect certifications. We can promote your skills, but you must provide a baseline of certifications for Progent to market. In case you are adamantly against the concept of certifications, we can understand and respect your position, but you are probably not an appropriate fit.

Improve Your Abilities with the Best Technology and
Working with a Great Team of Computer Consultants
Progent's company culture will make you a better consultant by enhancing your technical skills and increasing the satisfaction of your customers. Progent makes good on this promise by recruiting the best consulting experts for you to operate with, providing a state-of-the-art network and communications architecture, using proprietary application utilities to deliver the highest quality of support, and by optimizing proven business models for finding and maintaining customers.

The most important factor that separates us from most consulting firms is the excellence of our consultants. Among the scores of consultants who have joined us, we have assembled the best talent covering a wide array of technologies. Whether it’s Microsoft Windows, Cisco switches, network security, Mac, Linux, server virtualization, or other key areas, we engage experts who can enable you to be effective on larger projects by leveraging the collective experience of our team of professionals.

To promote the success of our team, we invest heavily in making available the best tools to perform the job efficiently. Progent will exploit technology to an extraordinary degree and our advanced virtual office infrastructure allows effortless communications, cooperation, and information exchange with other Progent team members — all from home-based or mobile offices. Consultants don’t throw away time or forfeit revenue with daily drives to a conventional office, and any travel you do for on-site client work is determined by your own time table, not ours. The best part is that much of our consulting work can be done off-site, offering 100% productivity for income-producing time. In fact, some Progent team members do off-site consulting exclusively.

Progent's operations are geared towards reacting rapidly and efficiently to customer requirements through knowledge exchange and cooperative problem solving. Although Progent's engineers operate with a great deal of freedom, dispatching is unified, client issues and resolutions are meticulously tracked, recorded, and archived for convenient reference, up-to-date consultant availability is broadcast to streamline team projects and simplify problem escalation, and client approval is continually evaluated. We strengthen the feeling of cooperation through monthly team meetings and quarterly corporate events.

The majority of our consultants are located throughout California, but we are attracting a rapidly growing group of network experts throughout America. Progent's virtual office environment does away with geographic obstacles that limit the efficiency of traditional company models. We complete the deal by offering a comprehensive benefit plan to ensure the health and economic welfare of our employees and their relations.

Just as we have world-class consulting professionals, our sales and administration groups live up to the high standards that characterizes Progent. These high-performance factors behind our success are enabling us to identify and sign up the 50-60 new customers we are now engaging each month. We lately celebrated the delivery of support to our 1,000th customer. Try typing “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to see for yourself why Progent is also a strong sales organization.

Possessing a passion for technical proficiency is a cornerstone for success with us. A job in consulting will push you to learn more than is possible in any other position in network technology. Being confronted by a steady stream of technical challenges is what makes professional support exciting. Customers choose consulting firms to do the “hard stuff.” Creative tasks, advanced deployments, puzzling or chronic issues, and difficult migrations are the basis for what we do every day. With us, you will not stall or be narrowly defined, as is sadly typical for network professionals in ordinary corporate roles. You will awake every day enthusiastic about the challenges ahead.

Along the way, you will meet some great folks, both by establishing close customer relationships and by operating closely with other Progent team members, where you will learn from and add to their success. Of course, technology is vital, but Progent is a relationship-focused company through and through. If you don’t offer strong people skills or enjoy working with a diverse group of personalities, then we are probably not a good fit.

If this sounds good to you, we urge you to talk to Progent about our vision of the future of network consulting.
