Additional Facts About Work with Us

Fulltime Jobs for Network Engineers, Computer Service Technicians,
Security Consultants, and Remote Support Technicians
Progent wants to find fulltime, solutions-oriented Microsoft certified consultants with Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer certification; Cisco accredited network consultants with Cisco credentials; security consultants who have CISSP or comparable security certification; and advanced network design experts with a background in mobile solutions, wireless connectivity, high uptime, workplace recovery, information preservation, and VMware. Progent also is looking for professionals to work on our staff of desktop support specialists and remote troubleshooting experts. In addition, Progent is hiring talented administrators able to operate productively in Progent's fast-paced, virtual office environment.

By maintaining a staff of skilled and dedicated consultants, delivering world-class client services, and offering a competitive value-focused fee model, Progent has been able to expand our customer list rapidly while delivering professional services to numerous businesses in the San Francisco area and throughout the United States. An advanced virtual office environment, a common information base, and a group strategy for problem solving have helped Progent to retain a skilled staff and a satisfied client base.

If you are an information technology consultant with troubleshooting experience, teaming with Progent or working for Progent's clients can expand your knowledge via interaction with Progent's staff of highly team-oriented, talented engineers. Progent's focus on providing network expertise and computer support to small and midsize companies will offer you the chance to work intimately with key players and contribute significantly to the success of dynamic companies.

We are looking for consultants that can show verifiable certification related to their technical focus. For example, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you must have earned your MCSE credential. For Cisco experts, have your Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert or Cisco Certified Network Professional certificate. For network security, you should have earned you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, Certified Information Systems Auditor, Certified Information Security Manager, or one of the other leading security certifications. Of course, Progent is aware of “paper MCSEs.” However, the fact that a certificate can not ensure expertise is no excuse for not owning one. If you know your stuff, then most of these tests should present no challenge. The point is that if you call yourself an expert, then customers expect certifications. We will broadcast your skills, but you should provide standard certifications for us to work with. If you stand strongly opposed to the idea of credentials, we can sympathize with and honor your opinion, but you are probably not a good candidate.

Enhance Your Abilities with the Best Technology and
Joining the Top Group of Computer Engineers
Progent's business climate will make you a more capable consultant by enhancing your information technology knowledge and boosting the satisfaction of your customers. Progent makes good on this commitment by attracting the top professional experts for you to work with, offering a state-of-the-art network and communications architecture, using proprietary application utilities to enable the highest level of support, and by streamlining proven business models for attracting and maintaining clients.

The decisive factor that separates us from ordinary consulting firms is the quality of our support professionals. Among the scores of consulting experts who have teamed with us, we have assembled top expertise across a broad array of technical areas. Whether it’s Microsoft servers, Cisco switches, network security, Mac, Linux, virtual servers, or other crucial areas, we deploy professionals who can help you to be effective on major projects by leveraging the collective experience of Progent's team of professionals.

To promote the productivity of Progent's consultants, we invest significantly in making available the most powerful technology to perform the job properly. We will exploit technology to an impressive degree and our advanced virtual office environment allows seamless connectivity, cooperation, and knowledge exchange with fellow Progent team members — entirely from at-home or on-the-road offices. Consultants don’t throw away time or lose income because of regular drives to a physical office building, and all driving you do for on-site customer jobs is based on your schedule, not ours. The most attractive benefit is that much of our consulting work can be done off-site, offering maximum productivity for billable time. In fact, some Progent team members do remote consulting exclusively.

Our business structure is geared towards responding rapidly and effectively to client requirements via knowledge exchange and cooperative problem solving. Even though our consultants work with a great deal of freedom, dispatching is centralized, customer problems and resolutions are carefully monitored, documented, and organized for convenient reference, up-to-date consultant schedules are published to facilitate group projects and enable problem escalation, and client satisfaction is continually evaluated. We strengthen the sense of cooperation through monthly team meetings and regular corporate events.

Most of our consultants are situated across California, but Progent is attracting a rapidly growing team of consulting experts from across the U.S. Progent's virtual office infrastructure does away with regional obstacles that limit the productivity of conventional company structures. We complete the package by providing a comprehensive benefit plan to ensure the physical health and financial welfare of our team members and their relations.

Not only do we have awesome consulting professionals, Progent's marketing and operations groups match the high standards that is Progent. These high-performance contributors to our growth are enabling us to target and sign up the scores of new clients we are now acquiring every month. We lately marked the delivery of services to our 1,000th customer. Try typing “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to see for yourself why we are also an effective sales operation.

Having a passion for technical proficiency is a key for success with us. A job in consulting will push you to enhance your skills more than is possible in any other job in information technology. Being exposed to a steady stream of network challenges is what makes professional support exciting. Customers rely on consulting firms to do the “hard stuff.” Creative projects, leading-edge implementations, vexing or entrenched problems, and tricky migrations are the basis for what we do every day. At Progent, you will not stall or be narrowly defined, as is sadly typical for computer professionals in ordinary corporate jobs. You will wake up every morning excited about the challenges to come.

On the way, you will meet some great people, both by establishing strong client relationships and by working closely with other Progent consultants, where you will benefit from and add to their growth. Of course, technology is important, but we are a relationship-focused company through and through. If you do not offer strong people skills or enjoy working with a diverse group of people, then we are probably a poor fit.

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