Security Consultants, and Remote Help Technicians

Progent is looking for technical professionals that have verifiable certification in their special expertise. So, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you must have your MCSE credential. In the case of Cisco experts, have your CCIE or CCNP credential. For network security, you should have earned you CISSP, Certified Information Systems Auditor, Certified Information Security Manager, or other leading security credentials. Of course, Progent is familiar with “paper MCSEs.” Still, simply because a certificate can not ensure excellence is no excuse for not having one. If you know your field, then the majority of these certifications should present no challenge. The crux of the matter is that if you call yourself a professional, then clients expect certifications. We will broadcast your talents, but you must have a baseline of credentials for Progent to market. In case you are adamantly opposed to the idea of certifications, Progent can sympathize with and respect your position, but you are likely not a good candidate.

Progent delivers on this commitment by recruiting the top consulting experts for you to work with, offering a state-of-the-art network and communications architecture, using custom application tools to enable the maximum quality of service, and by streamlining our business structures for attracting and keeping clients.

The main factor that distinguishes Progent from ordinary consulting companies is the quality of our support professionals. Out of the 50 or so consulting experts who have teamed with Progent, we have recruited top talent covering a wide range of technologies. Whether it's Microsoft Windows, Cisco switches, corporate security, Mac, Linux/UNIX, virtual servers, or other key areas, we engage professionals who can enable you to be successful on major projects by leveraging the aggregate skills of Progent's group of experts.

To promote the success of Progent's consultants, we invest heavily in making available the best tools to do the work properly. Progent will leverage technology to an impressive extent and our advanced virtual office environment allows effortless connectivity, cooperation, and knowledge exchange with other Progent team members — entirely from home-based or on-the-road offices. You don't waste time or lose income with regular drives to a conventional office, and any travel you do for on-site client work is determined by your schedule, not Progent's. The most attractive part is that most of our consulting work can be performed remotely, offering maximum efficiency for income-producing time. In fact, some Progent team members do remote consulting only.

Progent's business structure is geared towards reacting quickly and efficiently to customer needs through information exchange and cooperative problem resolution. Although our engineers work with a high level of independence, resource allocation is unified, customer problems and resolutions are meticulously monitored, documented, and archived for convenient reference, current engineer schedules are published to facilitate team projects and simplify problem escalation, and customer approval is continually evaluated. We reinforce the sense of cooperation through monthly team conferences and regular company-wide events.

The majority of Progent's consultants are located across California, but we are building a quickly growing team of consulting experts from across the United States. Our virtual office environment eliminates regional obstacles that limit the productivity of traditional company models.

We lately marked the delivery of support to our 1,000th client. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why Progent is also an effective sales organization.

Having a passion for technical proficiency is a key for growth with Progent. A job in consulting will push you to learn more than is possible in any other job in network technology. Being confronted by a continual series of network challenges is what makes professional support exciting. Customers choose consulting firms to do the “hard stuff.” Innovative tasks, advanced implementations, puzzling or chronic issues, and tricky upgrades are the basis for what we do daily. At Progent, you will not stall or be narrowly defined, as is all too common for network engineers in ordinary corporate roles. You will awake every morning excited about the opportunities to come.

On the way, you will work with some wonderful folks, both by building strong client relationships and by working closely with other Progent consultants, 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 don't offer strong people skills or like cooperating with a varied group of people, then we are in all likelihood not a good match.

If this sounds good to you, we urge you to contact Progent about our vision of the new paradigm of information technology consulting.
