Staff Work for Network Consultants, Computer Support Specialists,
Security Consultants, and Online Help Technicians
Progent wants to hire fulltime, solutions-driven Microsoft certified engineers with Microsoft MCSE, MCSA, or MCP credentials; Cisco accredited network consultants who have Cisco CCIE certification; security consultants with CISA or comparable security certification; and high-end network design experts with a background in mobile access, wireless networking, high availability, workplace recovery, information preservation, and virtual servers. Progent also is looking for professionals who can join Progent's staff of help desk service specialists and remote troubleshooting experts. Also, Progent is seeking talented managers able to perform productively in Progent's high-growth, virtual office environment.

By supporting a team of talented and motivated consultants, providing world-class client care, and offering a strong value-focused fee structure, Progent has been able to expand our client list dramatically while delivering professional support to hundreds of companies in the San Francisco area and throughout the United States. A sophisticated virtual office environment, a shared information base, and a group strategy for problem resolution have allowed Progent to retain a talented staff and a satisfied customer list.

If you are a network professional with technical support experience, teaming with Progent or working for our customers will expand your knowledge through interaction with our staff of mutually team-oriented, expert engineers. Our focus on delivering information technology expertise and technical support to small companies will give you the chance to collaborate closely with decision makers and add significantly to the success of dynamic companies.

Progent is looking for consultants who can show recognized credentials in their special focus. So, if you are a Microsoft expert, you should have earned your MCSE certificate. For Cisco experts, have your CCIE or Cisco Certified Network Professional credential. For network security, you should show you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, CISA, Certified Information Security Manager, or other top security certifications. Naturally, we are aware of “paper MCSEs.” Still, simply because a credential does not ensure expertise is no reason for not earning one. If you have mastered your stuff, then most of these tests should present no great difficulty. The bottom line is that if you represent yourself to be a professional, then clients deserve to see credentials. Progent will broadcast your talents, but you must provide a baseline of credentials for Progent to market. If you stand adamantly against the concept of certifications, we can understand and honor your position, but you are probably not a good fit.

Progent delivers on this commitment by attracting the top professional talent for you to work with, offering a state-of-the-art system infrastructure, running proprietary software utilities to deliver the highest quality of service, and by streamlining proven operational structures for finding and retaining customers.

The decisive factor that differentiates Progent from typical network support firms is the high caliber of our support professionals.

Be it Microsoft Windows, Cisco firewalls, network security, Mac, Linux, virtual servers, or other crucial areas, we engage professionals who can enable you to be effective on major projects by combining the collective experience of our team of experts.

To ensure the productivity of our consultants, we invest significantly in making available the most powerful tools to perform the work properly. Progent will exploit information technology to an impressive degree and our advanced virtual office environment enables effortless communications, cooperation, and information exchange with fellow Progent team members — all from at-home or on-the-road offices. You don’t waste time or lose revenue with regular drives to a physical office, and any travel you do for on-site client work is determined by your time table, not ours. The most attractive part is that much of Progent's support services can be performed off-site, representing 100% efficiency for billable time. In fact, some of our team members do remote consulting exclusively.

Our business structure is geared towards reacting quickly and effectively to customer requirements through knowledge sharing and collaborative problem solving. Although our consultants work with a high level of freedom, dispatching is centralized, customer problems and solutions are meticulously tracked, recorded, and organized for easy retrieval, up-to-date engineer availability is published to facilitate team tasks and simplify problem escalation, and client satisfaction is continually monitored. We strengthen the feeling of connection via monthly workgroup meetings and regular corporate events.

Most of Progent's consultants are situated throughout California, but Progent is attracting a rapidly expanding team of network professionals from across America. Our virtual office environment eliminates regional boundaries that limit the efficiency of traditional business models. We complete the package by offering a comprehensive benefit plan to ensure the health and economic security of our employees and their families.

Not only do we have awesome consultants, Progent's sales and operations groups live up to the excellence that is Progent. These top-notch contributors to our growth are enabling us to target and land the scores of new clients we are currently engaging every month. We recently celebrated the delivery of support to our 1,000th client. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to see for yourself why we are also a strong marketing organization.

Possessing a commitment to technical proficiency is a key for success with us. A job in consulting will drive you to learn more than you would in any other job in information technology. Being confronted by a continual series of technical challenges is what makes professional support interesting. Customers rely on a consultant to do the toughest jobs. Creative tasks, advanced deployments, puzzling or entrenched problems, and tricky migrations are the foundation for what we do every day. With us, you will not stall or be pigeonholed, as is sadly common for network engineers in ordinary corporate roles. You will wake up every morning excited about the opportunities to come.

Along the way, you will meet some wonderful folks, both by building close customer relationships and by working closely with other Progent consultants, where you will benefit from and contribute to their growth. Yes, technology is important, but Progent is a relationship-oriented organization from top to bottom. If you do not have excellent communications skills or enjoy cooperating with a varied assortment of personalities, then we are probably a poor fit.

If all this seems right for you, we urge you to talk to Progent about our view of the future of information technology consulting.
