Details Concerning Opportunities with Us

Career Work for Network Engineers, Computer Service Technicians,
Security Consultants, and Online Help Technicians
Progent wants to hire full-time, results-oriented Microsoft certified consultants with Microsoft MCSE or MCSA credentials; Cisco certified system engineers with Cisco CCIE or CCNP certification; security professionals who have CISSP, CISM, or CISA or equivalent security credentials; and advanced system architecture consultants with a background in mobile access, wireless networking, fault tolerance, disaster recovery, information preservation, and VMware. Progent also is hiring employees who can work on Progent's team of helpdesk support specialists and remote troubleshooting professionals. In addition, We are hiring talented managers who can operate productively in Progent's fast-paced, virtual office environment.

By supporting a staff of skilled and motivated professionals, delivering attentive customer services, and offering a competitive value-focused pricing model, We have managed to expand our client list rapidly while providing professional services to hundreds of businesses in the San Francisco area and across the U.S. A sophisticated virtual office network, a common knowledge database, and a group strategy for problem solving have allowed Progent to retain a talented staff and a loyal customer base.

For a network consultant with troubleshooting expertise, joining Progent or working for our customers can enhance your skills through interaction with Progent's staff of mutually team-oriented, expert consultants. Our focus on delivering information technology consulting and technical help to small companies will offer you the opportunity to work intimately with key players and contribute significantly to the growth of exciting businesses.

We are hiring consultants who can show verifiable credentials in their technical expertise. For example, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you should have your Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer certificate. In the case of Cisco experts, have your CCIE or CCNP certificate. For network security, you should have you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, CISA, CISM, or other top security credentials. Naturally, we are aware of "paper experts". Still, the fact that a credential can not ensure expertise is no excuse for not owning one. If you know your stuff, then most of those certifications should pose no challenge. The bottom line is that if you represent yourself to be a professional, then clients deserve to see certifications. We will market your talents, but you must provide standard certifications for us to market. In case you stand strongly against the concept of credentials, Progent can sympathize with and respect your position, but you are likely not an appropriate fit.

Joining the Top Group of Network Consultants

Progent makes good on this commitment by attracting the top professional talent for you to work with, providing an advanced system architecture, using proprietary software tools to enable the highest quality of service, and by optimizing proven business models for finding and retaining customers.

The most important factor that distinguishes Progent from other network support companies is the quality of our consultants. Out of the 50 or so consulting experts who have joined us, we have recruited top expertise across a broad array of technologies. Be it Microsoft Windows, Cisco firewalls, network security, Mac, Linux/UNIX, server virtualization, or other vital application, we deploy experts who can help you to be effective on major jobs by leveraging the collective experience of Progent's group of experts.

To promote the productivity of our consultants, we invest heavily in making available the best technology to perform the work efficiently. We will leverage technology to an extraordinary degree and our advanced virtual office environment enables seamless communications, cooperation, and information sharing with fellow Progent team members — all from at-home or on-the-road offices. Consultants don’t waste time or forfeit revenue with regular commutes to a physical office, and any driving you do for on-site customer jobs is determined by your own schedule, not ours. The best benefit is that most of our support services can be performed off-site, representing 100% productivity for income-producing time. In practice, some of our staff do remote consulting only.

Our operations are geared towards responding quickly and efficiently to client needs through knowledge sharing and collaborative problem solving. Even though our engineers operate with a high level of independence, dispatching is centralized, customer problems and solutions are carefully tracked, documented, and archived for convenient retrieval, current engineer schedules are published to streamline team projects and enable problem escalation, and customer approval is always evaluated. We strengthen the feeling of connection through monthly workgroup conferences and quarterly company-wide events.

The majority of Progent's consultants are situated across California, however we are building a quickly expanding team of consulting experts throughout America. Our virtual office infrastructure does away with geographic obstacles that restrict the efficiency of traditional company structures. We enhance the deal by providing a comprehensive employee care plan to ensure the health and financial security of our team members and their relations.

Not only do we have awesome consultants, Progent's sales and operations groups live up to the high standards that defines Progent. These high-performance contributors to our growth are enabling us to identify and sign up the scores of new customers we are now acquiring each month. Progent recently celebrated the delivery of services to our 1,000th client. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to see for yourself why we are also a strong sales operation.

Having a commitment to technical excellence is a cornerstone for growth with Progent. A career in consulting will drive you to enhance your skills more than you would in any other position in network technology. Being exposed to a continual series of technical challenges is what makes consulting exciting. Clients choose consultants to perform the toughest jobs. Creative tasks, leading-edge implementations, puzzling or chronic issues, and difficult migrations are the foundation for our services daily. At Progent, you will not stall or be pigeonholed, as is all too common for computer professionals in ordinary corporate jobs. You will wake up every morning enthusiastic about the challenges to come.

On the way, you will meet some wonderful people, both by establishing strong client relationships and by operating in conjunction with other Progent team members, where you will learn from and contribute to their success. Of course, technology is important, but we are a relationship-oriented company from top to bottom. If you don’t have strong communications skills or like cooperating with a varied assortment of people, then we are probably not a good match.

If this sounds good to you, we urge you to contact us about our vision of the future of information technology consulting.
