Career Work for Network Consultants, Desktop Support Technicians,
Security Consultants, and Online Support Technicians
Progent wants to hire full-time, results-driven Microsoft accredited engineers with Microsoft MCSE credentials; Cisco certified system consultants who have Cisco CCIE or CCNP certification; security consultants who have CISM or equivalent security certification; and advanced network design experts with experience in mobile solutions, wireless networking, high availability, business continuity, data protection, and virtual servers. Progent also is looking for professionals to join our team of helpdesk support technicians and remote support professionals. In addition, Progent is hiring talented managers who can operate productively in Progent's fast-paced, virtual office culture.

By supporting a staff of talented and motivated consultants, delivering attentive client care, and following a competitive value-focused pricing structure, We have managed to increase our customer base rapidly while delivering professional services to hundreds of companies in the San Francisco area and throughout the United States. A sophisticated virtual office network, a shared knowledge base, and a team approach to problem solving have allowed Progent to retain a skilled consulting team and a satisfied customer base.

For a network consultant with troubleshooting experience, joining Progent or helping our customers can expand your skills through interaction with our staff of highly team-oriented, talented consultants. Progent's focus on providing information technology expertise and computer help to small and midsize organizations will offer you the chance to collaborate intimately with decision makers and add appreciably to the growth of exciting businesses.

We are hiring consultants that have verifiable certification related to their special focus. So, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you must have your Microsoft MCSE credential. In the case of Cisco consultants, show us your CCIE or Cisco Certified Network Professional credential. For security, you should have earned you CISSP, Certified Information Systems Auditor, Certified Information Security Manager, or one of the other top security certifications. Naturally, we are familiar with "paper experts". However, the fact that a certificate can not guarantee expertise is no excuse for not having one. If you know your field, then most of those certifications should present no great difficulty. The crux of the matter is that if you call yourself an expert, then clients expect certifications. We will market your skills, but you need to provide basic certifications for us to work with. If you happen to be strongly opposed to the idea of certifications, we can sympathize with and honor your position, but you are probably not an appropriate fit.

Enhance Your Abilities with the Best Technology and
Working with a Great Group of Network Consultants
Progent's productive atmosphere will make you a more capable consultant by improving your technical knowledge and boosting the loyalty of your clients. Progent delivers on this commitment by attracting the best consulting experts for you to operate with, offering a state-of-the-art system infrastructure, running custom application utilities to enable the highest quality of service, and by streamlining our operational structures for attracting and retaining clients.

The decisive factor that distinguishes Progent from ordinary consulting firms is the quality of our support professionals. Out of the 50 or so consulting experts who have joined Progent, we have recruited the best talent covering a wide array of technical areas. Be it Microsoft servers, Cisco firewalls, corporate security, Mac, Linux/UNIX, virtual servers, or other vital technologies, we deploy professionals who can enable you to be effective on larger projects by leveraging the aggregate experience of our team of professionals.

To promote the productivity of our team, we invest heavily in providing the most powerful technology to do the job efficiently. We will exploit technology to an impressive extent and our state-of-the-art virtual office infrastructure allows effortless connectivity, collaboration, and knowledge exchange with fellow Progent team members — all from home-based or mobile offices. Consultants don’t waste time or forfeit income with daily commutes to a conventional office, and any driving you do for in-person client jobs is determined by your own schedule, not Progent's. The best benefit is that most of Progent's consulting services can be performed remotely, offering maximum productivity for billable hours. In fact, some of our team members do off-site consulting only.

Progent's operations are set up for reacting rapidly and efficiently to client needs via information sharing and collaborative problem resolution. Although our consultants operate with a high level of independence, resource allocation is centralized, customer issues and solutions are carefully tracked, documented, and archived for easy reference, up-to-date consultant availability is published to streamline team tasks and simplify trouble escalation, and client satisfaction is always monitored. We reinforce the feeling of cooperation through monthly team meetings and regular corporate events.

Most of Progent's team is located throughout California, but we are building a rapidly expanding group of consulting experts throughout the United States. Progent's virtual office environment eliminates regional obstacles that restrict the efficiency of conventional business models. We enhance the deal by providing a full employee care plan to promote the health and financial security of our team members and their families.

Not only do we have awesome consulting professionals, Progent's sales and operations groups match the excellence that is Progent. These high-performance factors behind our growth are enabling us to identify and land the scores of new customers we are now acquiring every month. Progent recently marked the delivery of services to our 1,000th customer. Try typing “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to see for yourself why Progent is also an effective sales operation.

Having a passion for technical excellence is a key for success with us. A career in consulting will drive you to learn more than you would in any other position in network technology. Being confronted by a continual series of technical challenges is what keeps consulting exciting. Customers choose consultants to do the “hard stuff.” Creative projects, advanced implementations, puzzling or chronic issues, 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 traditional corporate jobs. You will awake every day excited about the opportunities to come.

Along the way, you will meet some wonderful people, both by establishing close client contacts 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-focused company through and through. If you do not have strong people skills or enjoy cooperating with a varied assortment of people, then Progent is in all likelihood a poor fit.

If all this sounds good to you, we invite you to talk to us about our view of the future of information technology consulting.
