Additional Facts About Jobs with Us

Staff Work for Network Consultants, Desktop Support Specialists,
Security Experts, and Online Support Technicians
Progent wants to find staff-level, results-oriented Microsoft accredited consultants with MCSE or MCP credentials; Cisco accredited network consultants with Cisco certification; security professionals with CISM or equivalent security credentials; and advanced system architecture experts with experience in mobile access, wireless connectivity, high availability, business continuity, data protection, and virtual servers.

Progent's focus on providing information technology consulting and computer support to small organizations will give you the chance to collaborate closely with decision makers and contribute significantly to the growth of dynamic businesses.

We are hiring technical professionals that have verifiable certification related to their technical focus. So, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you must have your Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer certificate. In the case of Cisco experts, have your CCIE or CCNP certificate. For network security, you should show you CISSP, CISA, CISM, or one of the other leading security credentials. Of course, we are familiar with "paper experts". Still, the fact that a certificate can not ensure excellence is no excuse for not earning one. If you know your field, then most of these tests should pose no great difficulty. The bottom line is that if you call yourself an expert, then customers expect certifications. We will promote your talents, but you need to have basic credentials for us to work with. In case you are strongly against the idea of credentials, Progent can understand and honor your position, but you are probably not an appropriate fit.

To ensure the productivity of Progent's consultants, we invest significantly in making available the most powerful tools to do the job properly. We will exploit information technology to an extraordinary extent and our state-of-the-art virtual office environment enables effortless communications, collaboration, and knowledge exchange with other Progent consultants — all from home-based or on-the-road offices. Consultants don’t throw away time or forfeit revenue with regular commutes to a physical office, and any driving you do for on-site customer jobs is based on your schedule, not Progent's. The most attractive part is that most of our consulting work can be performed remotely, representing 100% productivity for income-producing time. In practice, some Progent staff do off-site consulting exclusively.

Progent's business structure is set up for responding rapidly and effectively to client needs via information sharing and collaborative problem resolution. Even though our consultants operate with a great deal of independence, resource allocation is centralized, customer issues and solutions are meticulously tracked, recorded, and organized for easy retrieval, current engineer schedules are broadcast to streamline team projects and enable problem escalation, and client satisfaction is always evaluated. We strengthen the sense of connection via periodic workgroup conferences and regular company-wide events.

Most of our consultants are situated throughout California, but we are building a quickly growing team of consulting professionals throughout the U.S. Progent's virtual office infrastructure eliminates geographic boundaries that restrict the productivity of traditional business structures.

We lately marked the providing of services to our 1,000th client. Try typing “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to see for yourself why we are also a strong sales operation.

Possessing a passion for technical proficiency is a cornerstone for success with Progent. A career in consulting will push you to enhance your skills more than is possible in any other job in information technology. Being exposed to a continual series of technical challenges is what keeps consulting exciting. Customers rely on consultants to perform the toughest jobs. Innovative tasks, leading-edge implementations, vexing or entrenched issues, and tricky upgrades are the foundation for what we do daily. With us, you will not stall or be narrowly defined, as is all too typical for network engineers in traditional corporate jobs. You will awake every day enthusiastic about the challenges to come.

Along the way, you will work with some wonderful people, both by building close customer contacts and by working in conjunction with other Progent team members, where you will learn from and contribute to their growth. Of course, technology is important, but Progent is a relationship-oriented organization through and through. If you do not have strong people skills or like working with a diverse group of personalities, then we are in all likelihood not a good match.

If all this sounds good to you, we invite you to talk to Progent about our view of the future of network consulting.
