Progent's commitment to delivering information technology consulting and technical support to small companies will give you the opportunity to work intimately with key players and contribute significantly to the growth of exciting businesses.

We are looking for consultants who have verifiable credentials in their technical focus.

If you know your stuff, then most of those tests should present no challenge. The bottom line is that if you call yourself an expert, then clients expect credentials. Progent will promote your talents, but you should provide basic credentials for Progent to market. In case you happen to be strongly opposed to the concept of certifications, we can sympathize with and respect your position, but you are probably not a good fit.

Enhance Your Skills with the Best Technology and
Working with a Great Team of Computer Engineers
Progent's company culture will allow you to become a better consultant by improving your information technology knowledge and increasing the loyalty of your customers. Progent makes good on this commitment by attracting the top professional talent for you to operate with, providing a state-of-the-art network and communications architecture, running proprietary software tools to deliver the highest level of service, and by optimizing proven business models for finding and maintaining customers.

The main factor that distinguishes us from most consulting companies is the high caliber of our consultants. Among the scores of consulting experts who have teamed with Progent, we have recruited top talent across a broad range of technical areas. Whether it's Microsoft Windows, Cisco firewalls, corporate security, Apple, Linux/UNIX, virtual servers, or other vital application, we engage experts who can help you to be effective on larger projects by combining the aggregate experience of Progent's group of experts.

To ensure the productivity of our team, we invest significantly in making available the best tools to do the job properly. Progent will exploit technology to an extraordinary degree and our advanced virtual office environment enables effortless connectivity, collaboration, and information exchange with other Progent team members — entirely from home-based or on-the-road offices. You don't throw away time or forfeit revenue because of regular drives to a conventional office, and all driving you do for on-site customer work is determined by your schedule, not ours. The best benefit is that most of Progent's support services can be performed remotely, representing 100% efficiency for billable hours. In fact, some Progent staff do off-site support exclusively.

Our business structure is geared towards responding quickly and effectively to client requirements via information exchange and cooperative problem solving. Even though our engineers operate with a great deal of independence, resource allocation is unified, client problems and resolutions are carefully monitored, documented, and archived for convenient retrieval, up-to-date engineer schedules are broadcast to streamline team projects and enable problem escalation, and customer satisfaction is continually monitored. We reinforce the feeling of connection via monthly workgroup conferences and regular company-wide events.

Most of our team is situated across California, but Progent is attracting a quickly growing group of network experts throughout America. Our virtual office infrastructure does away with geographic boundaries that limit the efficiency of conventional company structures. We complete the deal by offering a full benefit plan to ensure the physical health and financial security of our team members and their relations.

Just as we have awesome consultants, Progent's sales and administration teams live up to the high standards that characterizes Progent. These high-performance factors behind Progent's success are enabling us to identify and land the scores of new clients we are currently acquiring every month. We recently celebrated the delivery of support to our 1,000th client. Try typing “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why we are also an effective sales organization.

Possessing a passion for technical proficiency is a key for success with us. A job in consulting will drive you to learn more than is possible in any other position in information technology. Being exposed to a steady series of technical challenges is what makes professional support exciting. Customers rely on a consultant to perform the “hard stuff.” Creative tasks, leading-edge deployments, vexing or entrenched issues, and tricky upgrades are the foundation for what we do daily. At Progent, you will not stagnate or be pigeonholed, as is sadly typical for network professionals in ordinary corporate jobs. You will wake up every day enthusiastic about the challenges ahead.

Along the way, you will meet some great people, both by establishing close customer relationships and by operating closely with other Progent consultants, where you will benefit from and add to their success. Yes, technology is vital, but Progent is a relationship-oriented organization through and through. If you do not offer excellent communications skills or enjoy working with a varied group of personalities, then Progent is in all likelihood not a good fit.

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