We are looking for technical professionals that have recognized certification related to their special focus. So, if you are a Microsoft expert, you should have earned your Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer credential. For Cisco professionals, show us your Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert or CCNP certificate. For network security, you should show you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, CISA, CISM, or other leading security certifications. Naturally, we are familiar with "paper experts". However, the fact that a certificate can not ensure expertise is no excuse for not owning one. If you know your stuff, then the majority of those tests should be no challenge. The bottom line is that if you represent yourself to be a professional, then customers expect credentials. Progent will market your skills, but you need to have standard credentials for Progent to work with. If you are strongly against the idea of certifications, Progent can sympathize with and honor your opinion, but you are likely not an appropriate fit.

Progent makes good on this promise by attracting the best consulting experts for you to operate with, providing an advanced system infrastructure, using custom application utilities to deliver the highest quality of service, and by streamlining our business structures for finding and keeping customers.

The main factor that distinguishes Progent from ordinary consulting firms is the excellence of our service staff. Among the 50 or so consulting experts who have teamed with us, we have recruited top talent covering a broad range of technical areas. Be it Microsoft Windows, Cisco switches, corporate security, Apple, Linux, virtual servers, or other vital technologies, we deploy experts who can enable you to be successful on larger projects by leveraging the aggregate experience of our group of professionals.

To promote the productivity of Progent's team, we invest significantly in providing the most powerful technology to perform the work properly. Progent will exploit information technology to an impressive extent and our state-of-the-art virtual office infrastructure enables effortless connectivity, collaboration, and knowledge exchange with fellow Progent consultants — entirely from home-based or on-the-road offices. Consultants don’t throw away time or forfeit revenue because of daily drives to a physical office building, and any driving you do for on-site client work is based on your own time table, not ours. The best benefit is that much of our support services can be done remotely, offering maximum efficiency for billable time. In practice, some Progent staff do off-site support exclusively.

Progent's operations are set up for responding rapidly and efficiently to client requirements through information exchange and collaborative problem solving. Although Progent's engineers work with a high level of freedom, dispatching is unified, client issues and solutions are carefully tracked, recorded, and archived for convenient retrieval, up-to-date consultant availability is published to streamline team tasks and simplify problem escalation, and customer satisfaction is always evaluated. We strengthen the sense of cooperation via periodic team conferences and quarterly corporate events.

Most of Progent's consultants are located throughout California, but we are building a rapidly growing group of network professionals throughout America. Our virtual office environment eliminates geographic boundaries that restrict the efficiency of traditional company models. We enhance the deal by offering a full employee care program to ensure the physical health and financial security of our employees and their families.

Just as we have awesome consultants, Progent's sales and administration teams match the high standards that characterizes Progent. These high-performance factors behind Progent’s success are enabling us to identify and sign up the scores of new clients we are currently acquiring every month. Progent lately celebrated the providing of support to our 1,000th customer. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why Progent is also an effective sales organization.

Having a passion for technical excellence is a key for growth with us. A career in consulting will drive you to enhance your skills more than you would in any other position in information technology. Being exposed to a steady series of network challenges is what keeps consulting interesting. Clients choose consulting firms to perform the “hard stuff.” Creative tasks, advanced implementations, vexing or entrenched issues, and difficult migrations are the basis for what we do every day. At Progent, you will not stagnate or be narrowly defined, as is all too common for computer professionals in ordinary corporate jobs. You will awake every morning excited about the opportunities ahead.

Along the way, you will work with some wonderful folks, both by building strong client relationships and by working in conjunction with other Progent consultants, where you will learn from and add to their success. Yes, technology is vital, but Progent is a relationship-focused company through and through. If you do not offer excellent people skills or like cooperating with a diverse assortment of personalities, then we are in all likelihood a poor match.

If this seems right for you, we invite you to talk to us about our view of the new paradigm of network consulting.
