Progent is looking for technical professionals that can show verifiable certification in their technical focus.

If you have mastered your field, then the majority of those certifications should be no challenge. The point is that if you are a professional, then customers deserve to see credentials. We will broadcast your talents, but you must provide standard certifications for us to market. In case you happen to be strongly opposed to the concept of credentials, we can sympathize with and respect your opinion, but you are likely not a good fit.

Improve Your Skills with Advanced Technology and
Joining the Top Group of Computer Consultants
Progent's work environment will allow you to become a more capable consultant by enhancing your technical knowledge and boosting the satisfaction of your clients. Progent makes good on this promise by attracting the best professional talent for you to work with, providing an advanced system architecture, using specialized application utilities to deliver the highest quality of service, and by streamlining proven operational structures for attracting and retaining clients.

The decisive factor that separates Progent from ordinary consulting firms is the excellence of our consultants. Among the 50 or so consulting experts who have joined us, we have recruited the best expertise covering a broad range of technical areas. Whether it’s Microsoft servers, Cisco switches, network security, Mac, Linux/UNIX, virtual servers, or other crucial technologies, we engage professionals who can enable you to be effective on major projects by leveraging the aggregate skills of our team of professionals.

To promote the success of our team, we invest heavily in making available the most powerful technology to perform the job efficiently. Progent will leverage technology to an extraordinary degree and our state-of-the-art virtual office environment allows seamless communications, cooperation, and knowledge exchange with fellow Progent consultants — all from at-home or mobile offices. Consultants don’t throw away time or lose income because of regular drives to a conventional office building, and all travel you do for in-person client jobs is based on your time table, not ours. The most attractive benefit is that most of our consulting work can be performed off-site, representing 100% productivity for income-producing time. In practice, some Progent team members do off-site support only.

Progent's operations are set up for responding quickly and effectively to customer needs through knowledge exchange and collaborative problem resolution. Even though our engineers operate with a high level of independence, dispatching is centralized, customer issues and resolutions are carefully tracked, documented, and organized for convenient reference, current consultant availability is published to facilitate group tasks and enable problem escalation, and client satisfaction is continually evaluated. We strengthen the sense of cooperation via periodic team conferences and quarterly company-wide events.

Most of Progent's team is situated across California, but we are attracting a rapidly growing group of consulting experts throughout the United States. Our virtual office environment does away with geographic boundaries that restrict the productivity of traditional business models. We complete the deal by offering a comprehensive employee care plan to ensure the physical health and economic security of our employees and their relations.

Just as we have world-class consultants, Progent's sales and administration teams live up to the high standards that is Progent. These top-notch contributors to Progent’s success are enabling us to target and sign up the 50-60 new clients we are currently acquiring every month. We lately celebrated the delivery of support to our 1,000th client. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why Progent is also a strong sales operation.

Possessing a passion for technical excellence is a cornerstone for growth with us. A job in consulting will drive you to enhance your skills more than you would in any other job in network technology. Being exposed to a steady stream of network challenges is what makes professional support exciting. Customers choose a consultant to do the toughest jobs. Creative projects, advanced deployments, vexing or chronic problems, and tricky upgrades are the foundation for what we do daily. With us, you will not stall or be pigeonholed, as is all too typical for computer engineers in traditional corporate roles. You will wake up every morning excited about the challenges to come.

Along the way, you will meet some great people, both by establishing strong customer relationships and by operating closely with other Progent team members, where you will benefit from and contribute to their growth. Yes, technology is vital, but Progent is a relationship-focused company through and through. If you don’t have excellent people skills or like cooperating with a varied assortment of personalities, then we are in all likelihood not a good fit.

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