            General Employment Reports Second Quarter Results


  OAKBROOK TERRACE, IL - General Employment Enterprises, Inc. (AMEX:
  JOB) reported net income of $175,000, or $.03 per share, for the
  quarter ended March 31, 2006, compared with net income of $21,000 for
  the same quarter last year.

  The Company's consolidated net revenues for the quarter were
  $5,000,000,up 5% from $4,752,000 for the same quarter last year.
  Placement service revenues of $2,315,000 were up 17%, while contract
  service revenues of $2,685,000 decreased 3%.

  Commenting on the Company's performance for the quarter, Herbert F.
  Imhoff, Jr., board chairman and CEO, said, "Since 2004, there has
  been a growing demand for the Company's placement services.  We saw
  this trend continue during the second quarter, as the number of
  placements increased by 11% and average fees rose by 8% over the
  prior year, resulting in a 17% improvement in placement service
  revenues.  The average contract hourly billing rate increased by 5%
  during the second quarter.  However, this was offset by a 9% decrease
  in billable hours, and resulted in lower contract service revenues
  for the period."


                           Six Months Results

  For the six months ended March 31, 2006, the Company had net income
  of $303,000, or $.06 per share, a 116% increase compared with net
  income of $140,000, or $.03 per share, for the same period last year.
  Consolidated net revenues for the six-month period were $9,713,000,
  up 1% compared with $9,634,000 last year.

  There was no provision for income taxes in either year, because of
  the availability of losses carried forward from prior years.

  Concluding his comments, Mr. Imhoff said, "I'm pleased by the
  Company's improved performance this year and expect to see continuing
  increases, particularly in placement services.  Overall, we believe
  fiscal 2006 should be another good year for General Employment."
