Details Concerning Jobs at Progent

Staff Jobs for Network Consultants, Computer Service Technicians,
Security Consultants, and Online Help Technicians
Progent is seeking to hire staff-level, results-driven Microsoft certified consultants with Microsoft MCSE credentials; Cisco certified network consultants who have Cisco CCIE or CCNP certification; security professionals with CISSP, CISM, or CISA or equivalent security credentials; and high-end system design experts with a background in mobile access, wireless networking, fault tolerance, workplace recovery, data protection, and server virtualization. Progent also seeks professionals who can join our team of helpdesk service technicians and off-site support professionals. Also, We are looking for talented managers who can perform effectively in Progent's high-growth, virtual office culture.

By supporting a staff of skilled and motivated professionals, delivering attentive client care, and following a competitive value-focused fee model, Progent has managed to expand our customer list rapidly while providing consulting support to numerous companies in the San Francisco area and throughout the U.S. An advanced virtual office network, a common information base, and a group approach to problem solving have allowed Progent to retain a talented staff and a loyal customer list.

For an information technology professional with troubleshooting experience, joining Progent or helping Progent's clients will enhance your skills through interaction with our staff of highly team-oriented, talented engineers. Our commitment to delivering network consulting and computer support to small and midsize organizations will give you the opportunity to collaborate closely with decision makers and add appreciably to the success of exciting businesses.

Progent is looking for technical professionals who can show recognized certification in their special expertise. So, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you must have your Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer certificate. In the case of Cisco professionals, show us your Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert or Cisco Certified Network Professional credential. For security, you should have earned you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, CISA, CISM, or one of the other leading security certifications. Of course, Progent is aware of "paper experts". However, the fact that a certificate can not guarantee expertise is no excuse for not earning one. If you know your field, then the majority of those certifications should present no challenge. The point is that if you call yourself an expert, then clients expect credentials. We will promote your skills, but you need to provide a baseline of credentials for us to market. In case you happen to be strongly against the concept of credentials, Progent can sympathize with and respect your position, but you are probably not an appropriate fit.

Freelance Work for premier Experts for

Enhance Your Skills with Advanced Technology and
Joining a Great Team of Network Engineers
Progent's business climate will make you a better consultant by enhancing your information technology knowledge and increasing the satisfaction of your clients. Progent delivers on this promise by attracting the best consulting experts for you to operate with, providing a state-of-the-art system architecture, running proprietary software tools to enable the highest level of support, and by streamlining proven business models for finding and retaining customers.

The most important factor that distinguishes us from typical network support firms is the quality of our consultants. Among the 50 or so consulting experts who have teamed with us, we have assembled top expertise covering a wide range of technical areas. Whether it’s Microsoft Windows, Cisco firewalls, corporate security, Macintosh, Linux/UNIX, virtual servers, or other key technologies, we deploy experts who can enable you to be effective on larger jobs by combining the aggregate skills of our team of professionals.

To ensure the success of Progent's team, we invest heavily in making available the best tools to do the work properly. Progent will leverage technology to an extraordinary degree and our state-of-the-art virtual office infrastructure allows seamless communications, collaboration, and information sharing with other Progent team members — entirely from home-based or on-the-road offices. Consultants don’t waste time or forfeit income because of daily commutes to a conventional office building, and any driving you do for on-site customer work is determined by your own time table, not ours. The most attractive benefit is that much of Progent's support work can be performed off-site, representing 100% productivity for income-producing hours. In practice, some of our staff do off-site consulting only.

Progent's business structure is geared towards reacting quickly and efficiently to customer requirements through knowledge exchange and cooperative problem resolution. Even though Progent's consultants work with a great deal of independence, dispatching is centralized, client issues and resolutions are carefully tracked, documented, and archived for convenient retrieval, up-to-date consultant availability is published to facilitate group projects and simplify trouble escalation, and client approval is always monitored. We reinforce the sense of connection through monthly team conferences and quarterly company-wide events.

The majority of our consultants are located throughout California, but we are building a rapidly growing group of network experts from across the U.S. Our virtual office infrastructure eliminates regional obstacles that restrict the productivity of traditional company structures. We complete the package by offering a full benefit program to promote the physical health and financial security of our employees and their families.

Not only do we have awesome consulting professionals, our marketing and administration groups match the high standards that characterizes Progent. These high-performance factors behind Progent’s success are enabling us to target and sign up the scores of new customers we are currently acquiring every month. Progent lately marked the delivery of services to our 1,000th customer. Try typing “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why Progent is also a strong marketing organization.

Possessing a passion for technical excellence is a cornerstone for growth with us. A career in consulting will drive you to learn more than you would in any other position in information technology. Being exposed to a steady stream of network challenges is what keeps consulting interesting. Customers rely on consulting firms to perform the “hard stuff.” Innovative projects, advanced implementations, vexing or chronic issues, and tricky upgrades are the foundation for our services every day. With us, you will not stagnate or be pigeonholed, as is sadly common for computer engineers in ordinary corporate roles. You will wake up every morning enthusiastic about the opportunities ahead.

On the way, you will meet some great people, both by building strong customer relationships and by operating closely with other Progent consultants, where you will learn from and add to their growth. Yes, technology is important, but we are a relationship-focused organization through and through. If you don’t offer strong people skills or enjoy working with a diverse group of personalities, then Progent is in all likelihood a poor fit.

If this sounds good to you, we invite you to contact Progent about our view of the new paradigm of information technology consulting.
