Additional Facts Concerning Opportunities at Progent

Fulltime Jobs for Network Consultants, Computer Support Specialists,
Security Consultants, and Remote Help Professionals
Progent wants to find full-time, solutions-oriented Microsoft certified consultants with Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer credentials; Cisco accredited network consultants with Cisco CCIE or CCNP credentials; security consultants with CISA or equivalent security credentials; and advanced network architecture consultants with experience in mobile solutions, wireless connectivity, high uptime, business continuity, information protection, and VMware. Progent also is hiring employees to work on our team of desktop service specialists and off-site troubleshooting professionals. In addition, We are seeking talented administrators able to operate effectively in our fast-paced, virtual office culture.

Progent is looking for technical professionals who have recognized credentials related to their special expertise. So, if you are a Microsoft consultant, you must have your Microsoft MCSE credential.

For security, you should show you CISSP, Certified Information Systems Auditor, CISM, or one of the other top security certifications. Naturally, we are aware of "paper experts". Notwithstanding, the fact that a credential does not ensure excellence is no justification for not earning one. If you know your field, then most of those certifications should be no challenge. The point is that if you call yourself a professional, then customers deserve to see certifications. We can promote your talents, but you must provide standard credentials for us to market. If you stand strongly against the idea of credentials, Progent can sympathize with and respect your position, but you are probably not a good candidate.

Enhance Your Abilities with Advanced Technology and
Joining the Top Team of Network Engineers
Progent's work environment will allow you to become a better professional by improving your information technology skills and increasing the loyalty of your customers. Progent makes good on this promise by recruiting the top professional experts for you to work with, providing an advanced system infrastructure, using specialized application tools to enable the highest quality of service, and by streamlining proven operational structures for finding and retaining clients.

The most important factor that separates us from most consulting companies is the high caliber of our consulting team. Among the 50 or so consulting experts who have joined us, we have recruited the best expertise across a broad range of technologies. Whether it's Microsoft Windows, Cisco switches, corporate security, Mac, Linux, VMware, or other key technologies, we deploy experts who can enable you to be effective on major jobs by leveraging the collective experience of Progent's group of professionals.

To ensure the success of our team, we invest significantly in providing the most powerful technology to do the job efficiently. Progent will leverage technology to an extraordinary extent and our state-of-the-art virtual office infrastructure enables seamless connectivity, collaboration, and information exchange with fellow Progent consultants — all from home-based or mobile offices. Consultants don't waste time or lose revenue with daily commutes to a conventional office, and any driving you do for in-person customer jobs is determined by your own time table, not Progent's. The most attractive part is that most of Progent's consulting work can be done remotely, representing maximum productivity for income-producing hours. In practice, some Progent staff do off-site consulting exclusively.

Progent's business structure is geared towards reacting rapidly and effectively to customer needs through knowledge exchange and collaborative problem solving. Even though Progent's engineers operate with a great deal of independence, resource allocation is unified, client issues and solutions are carefully monitored, recorded, and organized for easy retrieval, current engineer schedules are published to streamline team tasks and simplify trouble escalation, and client approval is always monitored. We strengthen the sense of cooperation via periodic team conferences and regular corporate events.

Most of our consultants are located across California, but Progent is attracting a quickly expanding group of network experts from across the U.S. Our virtual office infrastructure eliminates regional boundaries that limit the efficiency of conventional company structures. We enhance the package by offering a comprehensive benefit plan to ensure the physical health and economic welfare of our employees and their families.

Just as we have awesome consultants, our marketing and operations groups live up to the excellence that is Progent. These high-performance contributors to Progent's success are helping us to target and land the 50-60 new customers we are currently engaging every month. Progent recently celebrated the providing of services to our 1,000th customer. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why Progent is also an effective sales operation.

Having a passion for technical excellence is a key for growth with Progent. A career in consulting will drive you to learn more than is possible in any other job in information technology. Being exposed to a continual series of technical challenges is what keeps professional support exciting. Customers choose consulting firms to do the toughest jobs. Creative projects, leading-edge implementations, puzzling or chronic issues, and tricky migrations are the foundation for our services daily. At Progent, you will not stall or be pigeonholed, as is all too common for computer professionals in ordinary corporate jobs. You will awake every morning excited about the challenges ahead.

On the way, you will meet some wonderful folks, both by establishing close client relationships and by operating closely with other Progent consultants, where you will benefit from and add to their growth. Yes, technology is vital, but we are a relationship-focused organization through and through. If you do not offer excellent communications skills or like cooperating with a diverse assortment of personalities, then we are probably not a good match.

If this seems good to you, we urge you to contact us about our view of the future of information technology consulting.
