Fulltime Jobs for Network Engineers, Desktop Support Specialists,
Security Consultants, and Online Help Technicians
Progent is seeking to find staff-level, results-oriented Microsoft accredited engineers with Microsoft MCSE credentials; Cisco certified network engineers who have Cisco CCIE credentials; security professionals with CISSP or comparable security certification; and advanced system design consultants with experience in mobile access, wireless networking, fault tolerance, workplace recovery, information protection, and virtual servers. Progent also seeks employees who can join our team of desktop service specialists and off-site support experts.

Progent is looking for consultants who can show verifiable certification in their special focus.

For network security, you should have you CISSP, Certified Information Systems Auditor, Certified Information Security Manager, or one of the other top security credentials. Of course, we are aware of “paper MCSEs.” Still, simply because a credential can not ensure excellence is no excuse for not earning one. If you have mastered your stuff, then the majority of these certifications should present no great difficulty. The crux of the matter is that if you represent yourself to be a professional, then clients expect certifications. Progent will promote your talents, but you need to have basic credentials for Progent to market.
