Puett Enterprises

The company advertises government jobs and work at home offers in help wanted sections of newspapers. Since the firm is not affiliated with any government agency and does not hire anyone for government jobs or homework, we consider its advertising practices to be deceptive and misleading. Complaints about similar services allege: that the complainants received lists of possible sources of government jobs, or were told that they provided preparation services which would lead to a higher civil exam score, or that the company used an interview type process to mislead the complainant to believe that this was the first step in obtaining employment. Companies placing such ads generally sell lists of possible sources of government jobs. Others sell training which they claim will lead to higher scores on civil service exams. We suggest anyone interested in government employment look in the phone book under city, county, state and federal government and contact the agencies directly. Call the various offices to determine if the agency is hiring and where jobs are posted. For instance, Post Offices post job openings in the main post office and at the branch where the job is open. Postings list the time period for applying and the minimum job requirements.
