Additional Facts Concerning Work at Progent

Career Work for Network Consultants, Computer Service Technicians,
Security Experts, and Online Support Professionals
Progent is seeking to hire full-time, solutions-driven Microsoft accredited engineers with MCSE or MCP certification; Cisco certified network consultants with Cisco CCIE credentials; security consultants who have CISSP, CISM, or CISA or equivalent security credentials; and high-end system design experts with experience in mobile access, wireless connectivity, service continuity, business continuity, information protection, and VMware. Progent also is hiring professionals who can work on Progent's team of help desk support specialists and remote support experts. In addition, We are seeking experienced administrators who can perform effectively in our high-growth, virtual office culture.

By maintaining a staff of talented and dedicated professionals, delivering world-class client care, and following a strong value-focused pricing structure, Progent has managed to expand our customer list rapidly while delivering consulting services to numerous businesses in the San Francisco area and throughout the U.S. An advanced virtual office network, a common knowledge base, and a group strategy for problem resolution have helped Progent to maintain a skilled staff and a satisfied client list.

For a network consultant with technical support expertise, joining Progent or working for Progent's clients will enhance your skills through cooperation with Progent's staff of mutually supportive, talented engineers. Our focus on providing information technology expertise and computer help to small organizations will give you the chance to work closely with key players and contribute appreciably to the growth of exciting businesses.

Progent is hiring technical professionals who have verifiable credentials in their special focus. For example, if you are a Microsoft expert, you must have earned your Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer credential. In the case of Cisco professionals, have your CCIE or CCNP certificate. For network security, you should have earned you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, Certified Information Systems Auditor, CISM, or other top security certifications. Naturally, Progent is familiar with "paper experts". Still, the fact that a credential does not guarantee excellence is no justification for not owning one. If you know your field, then the majority of these certifications should be no challenge. The bottom line is that if you are an expert, then customers expect credentials. Progent will market your talents, but you must have basic credentials for Progent to market. If you happen to be adamantly against the concept of credentials, Progent can sympathize with and honor your position, but you are probably not a good fit.

Improve Your Abilities with the Best Technology and
Joining a Great Team of Network Consultants
Progent's business climate will make you a more capable consulting professional by enhancing your information technology knowledge and boosting the loyalty of your clients. Progent delivers on this promise by recruiting the best consulting talent for you to work with, providing a state-of-the-art network and communications architecture, running proprietary software tools to enable the maximum quality of support, and by optimizing our business models for attracting and keeping customers.

The decisive factor that separates us from other consulting companies is the quality of our consulting team. Out of the scores of consultants who have joined Progent, we have assembled top expertise covering a broad range of technical areas. Whether it’s Microsoft servers, Cisco switches, network security, Mac, Linux, virtual servers, or other crucial application, we deploy experts who can enable you to be successful on major jobs by combining the aggregate skills of our team of professionals.

To ensure the productivity of Progent's consultants, we invest heavily in making available the best tools to do the job properly. Progent will exploit technology to an extraordinary degree and our advanced virtual office infrastructure enables effortless communications, collaboration, and knowledge sharing with fellow Progent team members — entirely from at-home or mobile offices. Consultants don’t waste time or forfeit revenue with daily commutes to a physical office, and all driving you do for in-person client work is determined by your time table, not ours. The best benefit is that most of our consulting work can be done off-site, offering maximum productivity for income-producing time. In practice, some Progent team members do remote consulting exclusively.

Our business structure is geared towards responding rapidly and effectively to client requirements through knowledge sharing and collaborative problem solving. Although Progent's consultants operate with a high level of freedom, resource allocation is centralized, customer problems and solutions are meticulously monitored, recorded, and organized for easy reference, up-to-date engineer availability is published to facilitate team tasks and enable problem escalation, and customer satisfaction is continually evaluated. We reinforce the feeling of cooperation via periodic workgroup meetings and regular company-wide events.

The majority of our consultants are situated across California, but we are attracting a rapidly expanding team of consulting experts from across the U.S. Our virtual office infrastructure eliminates geographic boundaries that restrict the productivity of traditional business models. We complete the deal by providing a full employee care plan to ensure the health and financial security of our employees and their relations.

Not only do we have world-class consultants, our marketing and administration groups live up to the high standards that is Progent. These high-performance contributors to Progent’s success are helping us to identify and land the 50-60 new clients we are currently acquiring every month. We recently marked the delivery of services to our 1,000th customer. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why we are also an effective marketing organization.

Having a commitment to technical proficiency is a cornerstone for growth with Progent. A career in consulting will push you to learn more than is possible in any other position in information technology. Being exposed to a continual stream of network challenges is what keeps professional support exciting. Clients rely on consulting firms to perform the “hard stuff.” Creative projects, advanced deployments, vexing or chronic problems, and difficult migrations are the basis for what we do every day. With us, you will not stall or be pigeonholed, as is all too typical for network professionals in ordinary corporate roles. You will awake every day excited about the opportunities to come.

On the way, you will work with some wonderful folks, both by building strong client relationships and by operating in conjunction with other Progent team members, where you will benefit from and contribute to their success. Yes, technology is vital, but we are a relationship-focused company heart and soul. If you do not offer excellent people skills or enjoy working with a diverse group of personalities, then we are probably not a good match.

If all this sounds right for you, we invite you to contact us about our vision of the future of network consulting.
