ATLANTA, GA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/04/13 -- Sage North America today announced its continued partnership with CollegeFrog, a company that works to match high-performing accounting students and graduates with hiring firms across the nation, to present the Spring National Meet the Firms Week event. This is the second National Meet the Firms Week, a premier virtual accounting recruiting event, running from March 25-29, 2013.

National Meet the Firms Week allows hundreds of accounting firms nationwide to meet thousands of job-seeking accounting students and gives students the opportunity to get their resumés into the hands of hiring firms, all online and at no charge.

Last fall, CollegeFrog presented the first National Meet the Firms Week event as an answer to recruitment challenges that college students and firms alike are facing. Colleges across the nation were hosting Meet the Firms events on campus, allowing students to interact with local hiring firms in person. Many accounting firms could not afford to recruit at multiple campuses in their area, and students wanted more exposure to more employment opportunities.

Students and firms are encouraged to visit http://www.meetthefirmsweek.com and create a profile. When the event kicks off on March 25, each participating firm will gain access to all student profiles in their state of operation.

Sage will cosponsor this event with other industry leaders, providing benefits to participating students and firms.

Students will receive:

• Individual access to Sage 50 Accounting 2014 - U.S. Edition (formerly Sage Peachtree) online comprehensive Anytime Learning until May 31, 2013.
• Sage 50 Accounting 2014 - U.S. Edition product certification at no charge after passing the exam by May 31, 2013 (students will have the opportunity to download the trial version of the software to prepare and utilize for the exam).
• Complimentary 90-day Sage One trial available for sign-up until May 31, 2013.

Firms will receive Sage Accountants Network membership for $199 ($449 value) for the first year of membership, available for sign-up until May 31, 2013. Benefits to this autorenewing membership include:

• Usage of a 5-user license of Sage 50 Accountant Edition (formerly Sage Peachtree Accountants Edition) for the duration of the membership.
