Details Concerning Opportunities at Progent

Staff Work for Network Consultants, Desktop Service Technicians,
Security Consultants, and Online Help Technicians
Progent is seeking to hire fulltime, solutions-driven Microsoft certified engineers with MCSE or MCP certification; Cisco certified system engineers with Cisco CCIE certification; security consultants with CISSP, CISM, or CISA or comparable security certification; and high-end system design consultants with experience in mobile solutions, wireless connectivity, high uptime, business continuity, information protection, and server virtualization. Progent also is hiring employees who can work on our staff of helpdesk service specialists and off-site support experts. Also, Progent is looking for experienced managers able to perform productively in our high-growth, virtual office culture.

By supporting a staff of skilled and motivated consultants, providing attentive client care, and following a strong results-focused fee structure, Progent has been able to increase our client list dramatically while delivering consulting support to hundreds of businesses in the San Francisco area and throughout the U.S. An advanced virtual office environment, a common knowledge database, and a group strategy for problem resolution have helped Progent to retain a skilled staff and a loyal client list.

For an information technology professional with technical support expertise, joining Progent or helping our customers will expand your knowledge via interaction with our staff of mutually supportive, talented consultants. Progent's commitment to delivering network expertise and technical support to small organizations will give you the chance to collaborate closely with key players and contribute significantly to the success of exciting businesses.

Progent is looking for consultants that have recognized certification in their technical focus. So, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you must have your Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer credential. In the case of Cisco experts, have your CCIE or CCNP credential. For network security, you should show you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, Certified Information Systems Auditor, Certified Information Security Manager, or other top security credentials. Naturally, we are familiar with “paper MCSEs.” Notwithstanding, the fact that a credential does not guarantee excellence is no justification for not earning one. If you know your field, then the majority of these certifications should pose no great difficulty. The crux of the matter is that if you are an expert, then customers deserve to see credentials. Progent can market your skills, but you must provide standard credentials for Progent to work with. If you happen to be strongly against the concept of certifications, we can sympathize with and honor your position, but you are probably not a good candidate.

Improve Your Abilities with the Best Technology and
Working with a Great Team of Computer Consultants
Progent's company culture will make you a better consultant by enhancing your technical knowledge and increasing the satisfaction of your clients. Progent delivers on this promise by attracting the top consulting experts for you to work with, providing a state-of-the-art system architecture, running custom software tools to deliver the highest level of support, and by streamlining our business structures for finding and maintaining customers.

The main factor that distinguishes Progent from ordinary consulting companies is the excellence of our consulting team. Out of the 50 or so consulting experts who have teamed with Progent, we have assembled top expertise across a broad array of technical areas. Be it Microsoft Windows, Cisco switches, network security, Mac, Linux, server virtualization, or other key areas, we engage professionals who can enable you to be effective on larger jobs by combining the collective experience of Progent's team of experts.

To promote the success of our team, we invest heavily in making available the most powerful technology to do the work efficiently. We will leverage technology to an extraordinary degree and our state-of-the-art virtual office environment allows effortless connectivity, collaboration, and information exchange with other Progent team members — entirely from home-based or mobile offices. Consultants don’t waste time or lose income because of daily commutes to a conventional office, and all travel you do for in-person customer work is based on your own schedule, not Progent's. The best benefit is that most of Progent's support work can be performed remotely, offering 100% efficiency for billable time. In fact, some Progent staff do remote consulting exclusively.

Progent's business structure is set up for responding rapidly and efficiently to customer needs via knowledge sharing and cooperative problem solving. Although our consultants work with a high level of independence, resource allocation is unified, client problems and resolutions are carefully tracked, documented, and organized for convenient reference, current consultant availability is published to streamline group projects and simplify trouble escalation, and customer satisfaction is always monitored. We strengthen the feeling of cooperation via periodic team conferences and quarterly company-wide events.

The majority of Progent's consultants are located throughout California, but Progent is attracting a rapidly expanding team of network experts throughout America. Progent's virtual office environment eliminates geographic boundaries that restrict the efficiency of conventional business structures. We complete the deal by offering a full employee care program to promote the physical health and economic security of our team members and their families.

Not only do we have world-class consultants, Progent's marketing and administration groups match the high standards that characterizes Progent. These top-notch factors behind our growth are helping us to target and sign up the scores of new clients we are now engaging each month. Progent recently celebrated the delivery of support 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.

Possessing a commitment to 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 information technology. Being exposed to a steady stream of network challenges is what makes professional support exciting. Customers rely on consulting firms to perform the toughest jobs. Creative projects, advanced deployments, vexing or chronic problems, and difficult upgrades are the basis for our services daily. With us, you will not stagnate or be pigeonholed, as is all too typical for computer engineers in traditional corporate roles. You will awake every morning enthusiastic about the opportunities ahead.

Along the way, you will work with some great people, both by building close client contacts and by operating closely with other Progent team members, where you will learn from and add to their growth. Of course, technology is important, but Progent is a relationship-oriented company through and through. If you don’t offer strong people skills or enjoy working with a diverse group of personalities, then Progent is in all likelihood not a good fit.

If all this seems right for you, we urge you to talk to us about our vision of the new paradigm of information technology consulting.
