Additional Facts Concerning Opportunities at Progent

Staff Jobs for Network Consultants, Desktop Service Specialists,
Security Consultants, and Remote Support Technicians
Progent is seeking to find fulltime, results-driven Microsoft accredited engineers with MCSE or MCP credentials; Cisco certified network engineers who have Cisco credentials; security consultants who have CISM or equivalent security credentials; and high-end system architecture experts with a background in mobile access, wireless connectivity, high availability, business continuity, data protection, and virtual servers. Progent also is looking for employees who can join Progent's team of helpdesk service technicians and off-site support professionals. Also, Progent is seeking talented managers able to perform effectively in our fast-paced, virtual office culture.

By supporting a staff of talented and motivated consultants, delivering world-class customer care, and following a strong value-focused pricing structure, We have managed to expand our client list dramatically while providing professional support to numerous companies in the San Francisco area and throughout the U.S. A sophisticated virtual office environment, a shared information database, and a team strategy for problem solving have allowed Progent to retain a talented staff and a satisfied customer base.

For a network consultant with technical support experience, joining Progent or working for our customers will expand your skills via cooperation with our group of highly team-oriented, talented engineers. Our commitment to delivering network expertise and computer help to small and midsize organizations will offer you the chance to work intimately with decision makers and add appreciably to the growth of dynamic companies.

We are looking for technical professionals that have recognized credentials in their technical focus. So, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you should have your MCSE credential. In the case of Cisco consultants, have your CCIE or CCNP certificate. For security, you should have you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, CISA, CISM, or other top security credentials. Naturally, Progent is familiar with “paper MCSEs.” Notwithstanding, simply because a certificate can not ensure expertise is no excuse for not earning one. If you know your field, then most of these certifications should present no great difficulty. The point is that if you call yourself an expert, then customers deserve to see credentials. Progent will promote your skills, but you should have basic certifications for us to work with. If you are strongly opposed to the concept of certifications, we can sympathize with and respect your position, but you are probably not a good candidate.

Enhance Your Skills with Advanced Technology and
Working with a Great Group of Computer Consultants
Progent's business climate will make you a more capable consultant by improving your information technology skills and boosting the loyalty of your customers. Progent makes good on this commitment by recruiting the best professional talent for you to operate with, providing an advanced system architecture, running proprietary software tools to enable the maximum quality of service, and by streamlining our operational structures for attracting and keeping customers.

The main factor that differentiates us from other network support companies is the quality of our consulting team. Among the scores of consultants who have joined Progent, we have assembled top expertise covering a broad array of technical areas. Be it Microsoft Windows, Cisco switches, corporate security, Apple, Linux, VMware, or other crucial areas, we deploy professionals who can enable you to be successful on major jobs by combining the collective experience of our team of experts.

To promote the productivity of Progent's team, we invest significantly in making available the best technology to perform the job efficiently. Progent will leverage information technology to an impressive degree and our advanced virtual office infrastructure enables seamless connectivity, collaboration, and knowledge sharing with fellow Progent consultants — entirely from at-home or mobile offices. You don't throw away time or lose income with daily commutes to a conventional office building, and all travel you do for on-site client work is determined by your time table, not Progent's. The best part is that most of Progent's consulting work can be performed off-site, representing 100% productivity for billable time. In practice, some Progent team members do remote consulting only.

Our business structure is geared towards reacting rapidly and effectively to customer needs via knowledge exchange and cooperative problem resolution. Although Progent's consultants operate with a great deal of freedom, dispatching is centralized, customer problems and solutions are carefully tracked, recorded, and organized for easy retrieval, current engineer schedules are broadcast to facilitate team projects and enable trouble escalation, and client approval is always monitored. We reinforce the feeling of cooperation through periodic workgroup meetings and regular corporate events.

Most of Progent's consultants are located across California, but Progent is attracting a quickly growing team of consulting professionals throughout the United States. Progent's virtual office infrastructure eliminates regional boundaries that restrict the productivity of traditional business structures. We complete the package by offering a full employee care program to promote the physical health and economic welfare of our employees and their relations.

Not only do we have world-class consulting professionals, Progent's sales and operations groups live up to the excellence that characterizes Progent. These high-performance factors behind Progent's growth are enabling us to target and land the scores of new clients we are currently acquiring each month. Progent lately marked the delivery of services to our 1,000th customer. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why we are also a strong sales operation.

Possessing a commitment to technical proficiency is a cornerstone for growth with us. A career in consulting will push you to learn more than you would in any other position in information technology. Being exposed to a steady series of network challenges is what keeps professional support exciting. Customers rely on consulting firms to perform the “hard stuff.” Innovative projects, leading-edge implementations, puzzling or entrenched issues, and tricky upgrades are the foundation for our services every day. At Progent, you will not stall or be narrowly defined, as is sadly typical for computer professionals in traditional corporate jobs. You will awake every day enthusiastic about the challenges ahead.

Along the way, you will meet some wonderful people, both by establishing strong customer contacts and by operating in conjunction with other Progent consultants, where you will learn from and contribute to their success. Yes, technology is important, but Progent is a relationship-oriented organization heart and soul. If you don't have strong communications skills or like working with a varied group of people, then Progent is probably a poor match.

If all this sounds good to you, we urge you to contact Progent about our vision of the future of network consulting.
