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

If you have mastered your stuff, then most of these certifications should be no challenge. The bottom line is that if you are a professional, then clients deserve to see certifications.

Enhance Your Abilities with Advanced Technology and
Working with a Great Group of Network Engineers
Progent's business climate will make you a better professional by improving your information technology knowledge and boosting the satisfaction of your customers. Progent makes good on this commitment by recruiting the best consulting experts for you to operate with, providing an advanced system architecture, using specialized application tools to deliver the highest quality of service, and by streamlining proven business structures for finding and keeping clients.

The decisive factor that distinguishes Progent from most network support companies is the high caliber of our support professionals. Out of the 50 or so consultants who have joined Progent, we have assembled top talent across a broad array of technical areas. Whether it’s Microsoft servers, Cisco switches, network security, Mac, Linux/UNIX, server virtualization, or other crucial technologies, we engage experts who can help you to be successful on larger projects by leveraging the collective experience of our team of professionals.

To promote the productivity of Progent's team, we invest significantly in making available the best tools to perform the job efficiently. Progent will exploit technology to an extraordinary degree and our state-of-the-art virtual office environment allows effortless connectivity, collaboration, and information exchange with fellow Progent team members — entirely from home-based or on-the-road offices. Consultants don’t throw away time or lose revenue with daily drives to a conventional office building, and any driving you do for on-site client jobs is based on your own schedule, not ours. The most attractive benefit is that most of Progent's support work can be performed off-site, offering 100% efficiency for income-producing hours. In fact, some Progent staff do off-site consulting exclusively.

Our business structure is geared towards reacting quickly and effectively to customer needs through information sharing and collaborative problem resolution. Although Progent's consultants work with a great deal of freedom, resource allocation is unified, customer issues and solutions are carefully monitored, documented, and archived for easy retrieval, current consultant availability is published to facilitate team tasks and simplify problem escalation, and client approval is always evaluated. We reinforce the feeling of connection via periodic team conferences and quarterly corporate events.

The majority of Progent's team is situated across California, but Progent is attracting a rapidly growing group of consulting experts from across the U.S. Progent's virtual office environment does away with geographic obstacles that limit the efficiency of conventional business models. We complete the deal by providing a full benefit program to promote the physical health and financial welfare of our employees and their relations.

Just as we have awesome consulting professionals, our marketing and operations groups live up to the excellence that characterizes Progent. These top-notch contributors to our success are helping us to identify and sign up the 50-60 new customers we are now engaging every month. We lately celebrated 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 a strong marketing operation.

Possessing a commitment to technical proficiency is a cornerstone for success with us. A career in consulting will push you to enhance your skills more than is possible in any other position in network technology. Being confronted by a continual series of technical challenges is what keeps professional support interesting. Clients choose a consultant to perform the toughest jobs. Innovative projects, advanced deployments, vexing or chronic issues, and tricky upgrades are the foundation for what we do daily. At Progent, you will not stagnate or be narrowly defined, as is sadly common for network professionals in traditional corporate jobs. You will wake up every morning excited about the challenges ahead.

Along the way, you will work with some wonderful folks, both by building close customer contacts and by working closely with other Progent consultants, where you will learn from and contribute to their success. Of course, technology is vital, but Progent is a relationship-focused organization heart and soul. If you do not have excellent people skills or enjoy working with a varied assortment of personalities, then Progent is probably not a good fit.

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