Dear General Employment Option Holder:

On August 21, 2002, I sent you materials in connection with the
Company's Stock Option Exchange Program.  In accordance with the
requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we are
providing the following additional information to you.


Offer to Exchange Outstanding Stock Options

The following is our revised response to one of the questions in
the Summary Term Sheet:

When will I receive my new options?

We will send you a confirming receipt of your tendered options
for exchange promptly after we receive them.  We will send the
receipt by mail or, if you choose, by e-mail or fax.  We will
accept for exchange, promptly after the expiration of the offer,
all properly tendered options that are not properly withdrawn. We
will deliver or mail to you the documentation relating to the new
options promptly after the Exchange Offer Expiration Date.


The following information is added to the end of Section 6,
Conditions of the Offer:

We will assert or waive, by the Exchange Offer Expiration Date,
that any condition set forth above occurred prior to the Exchange
Offer Expiration Date.  We may not assert after the Exchange
Offer Expiration Date that one of the conditions occurred.


Section 16, Additional Information, is amended to remove
subparagraph (h).  We may not incorporate filings under the
Exchange Act that occur after the date of the offer.

Election Form

Because it is not necessary for you to acknowledge that you
received and read the offering materials that we provided to you,
we have revised the Election Form to remove that language.  A
copy of the revised Election Form is enclosed.

If you have already tendered your option shares for exchange on
the original Election Form, you do not need to submit a new form.
However, if you wish to withdraw your tendered options, you will
need to complete the Withdrawal Form that was provided to you
with your original Option Exchange materials.

You should read the information provided and consider your
decision carefully.  If you wish to participate in this program,
your Election Form, along with your tendered option agreements,
must be received by Nancy C. Frohnmaier, Vice President and
Corporate Secretary, at General Employment Enterprises, Inc., One
Tower Lane, Suite 2100, Oakbrook Terrace, IL  60181, by 5:00
p.m., Central time, on or before September 20, 2002.  If you have
any questions about the offer after reading the enclosed
materials, you can send me a fax at (630) 954-0595 or e-mail me
at cimhoff@genp.com.  Due to the nature of this offer, we cannot
answer questions over the telephone.

                                   Sincerely,



                                   Herbert F. Imhoff, Jr.
