INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



To the Trustee of the
   TMP Worldwide Inc.
   401(k) Savings Plan
New York, New York

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of TMP Worldwide Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 1998
and 1997, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the changes in its net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held
for investment purposes at December 31, 1998, and reportable transactions and
nonexempt transactions for the year ended December 31, 1998 are presented for
the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements, but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental
schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of
the basic financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 1998,
and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to
the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

  1.   DESCRIPTION OF PLAN            The following description of the TMP
                                      Worldwide Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan and
                                      its related Trust arrangement
                                      (collectively, the "Plan") is provided
                                      for general information purposes only.
                                      Participants should refer to the current
                                      Plan agreement for a complete description
                                      of the Plan's provisions.

                                      The Plan was adopted as of January 1, 1992
                                      by McKelvey Enterprises, Inc. (formerly
                                      Telephone Marketing Programs, Inc., which
                                      has since changed its name to TMP
                                      Worldwide Inc. ("TMP")) for the benefit of
                                      its eligible employees and the eligible
                                      employees of any other organization
                                      designated by TMP's Board of Directors.
                                      The Plan was amended twice during 1992.
                                      The first amendment was effective January
                                      1, 1992, altering the Plan's vesting
                                      rules, and effective July 1, 1992,
                                      altering the eligibility rules. The second
                                      amendment was effective October 1, 1992
                                      and that amendment permitted TMP to extend
                                      the coverage of the Plan to employees of
                                      organizations not considered an affiliate.
                                      The Plan was amended effective October 1,
                                      1997 and that amendment permitted all
                                      matching contributions by the Plan to be
                                      made in shares of the corporation's common
                                      stock. A restatement and amendment of the
                                      Plan was adopted effective April 1, 1998,
                                      and that amendment revised the eligibility
                                      requirement to one year of service with
                                      1,000 hours of employment and provided
                                      that the employer may make discretionary
                                      non-elective contributions and profit
                                      sharing contributions. The first amendment
                                      was effective July 1, 1998, and that
                                      amendment added a participating employer
                                      and waived the service requirement for
                                      certain employees of the new participating
                                      employer. The second amendment was
                                      effective January 1, 1999, and that
                                      amendment modified the definition of
                                      compensation to exclude stock option
                                      proceeds. The third amendment was
                                      effective April 1, 1998, and that
                                      amendment prevented the employer match
                                      stock source from being used as a source
                                      for participant loans.

===============================================================================

                                      GENERAL

                                      The Plan is a defined contribution plan
                                      and provides for elective contributions on
                                      the part of the participating employees
                                      and for employer matching contributions.
                                      The Plan extends coverage to each employee
                                      of the participating employers, except
                                      those employees covered by a collective
                                      bargaining agreement where the agreement
                                      does not specifically provide for the
                                      participation in the Plan of the employees
                                      subject to that bargaining agreement. As
                                      of February 1, 1992 and April 1, 1992, the
                                      first two Plan entry dates, any eligible
                                      employee had to have completed one year of
                                      service (a twelve-month period of at least
                                      1,000 employment hours) to enter the Plan.
                                      Subsequently, the Plan was revised to
                                      allow eligible employees to enter the Plan
                                      beginning each calendar quarter following
                                      their completion of one hour of service.
                                      As of April 1, 1998, the Plan was revised
                                      to allow eligible employees to enter the
                                      Plan upon completion of one year of
                                      service (a twelve month period of at least
                                      1,000 employment hours). The Plan
                                      designates TMP as the Plan administrator
                                      (the "Plan Administrator"). The Plan
                                      Administrator shall be responsible for the
                                      operations of the Plan in accordance with
                                      prevailing government requirements. The
                                      Plan is subject to the provisions of the
                                      Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
                                      1974 ("ERISA") and provisions of the
                                      Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as pertains
                                      to plans intended to qualify under Section
                                      401(a) of that Code.

                                                                              7

                                      CONTRIBUTIONS

                                      Participating employees have the option to
                                      make elective contributions of up to 15%
                                      of their compensation, subject to the
                                      limit of Internal Revenue Code Section
                                      402(g) ($10,000 and $9,500 for 1998 and
                                      1997, respectively). Participating
                                      employers shall make a matching
                                      contribution equal to the elective
                                      contribution, but not more than 2% of each
                                      contributing employee's compensation. The
                                      employer's matching contribution shall be
                                      made in shares of the corporation's common
                                      stock. A participating employee who makes
                                      an elective contribution, however, is only
                                      eligible for an employer matching
                                      contribution for the Plan year (the
                                      calendar year) if the employee is employed
                                      by the employer on the last day of such
                                      year. Notwithstanding the employment
                                      requirement, the Plan provides that an
                                      employer matching contribution shall be
                                      made to a sufficient number of non
                                      highly-compensated employees who have been
                                      terminated during the Plan year as may be
                                      necessary to satisfy the requirements of
                                      Internal Revenue Code Section 410(b). The
                                      employer may make discretionary
                                      non-elective contributions which are
                                      allocated in the same ratio as each
                                      participant's compensation bears to the
                                      total compensation of all participants for
                                      the Plan year.

                                      PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS

                                      Each participant's account is credited
                                      with the elective contributions made by
                                      that participant and employer matching
                                      contributions for which that participant
                                      is eligible. The participating employees
                                      direct the investment of the contributions
                                      credited to their account into one or more
                                      of the investment funds which have been
                                      made available to them. Each participant's
                                      account will be credited with its share of
                                      the net investment earnings of the funds
                                      in which that account is invested. The
                                      benefits to which a participant is
                                      entitled is the amount that can be
                                      provided from the participant's vested

                                      FORFEITURES

                                      Forfeitures of terminated participants'
                                      nonvested accounts are used to pay the
                                      Plan expenses and any excess is applied as
                                      a reduction to the otherwise required
                                      employer matching contribution,
                                      discretionary non-elective contribution or
                                      profit sharing contributions. Forfeitures
                                      occur in a Plan year when a terminated
                                      participant receives the vested portion of
                                      their account or, if earlier, upon the
                                      occurrence of six consecutive one-year
                                      breaks in service. If the terminated
                                      participant resumes employment before six
                                      consecutive one-year breaks in service,
                                      the amount that the participant forfeited
                                      will be reinstated with, under certain
                                      circumstances, investment earnings.
                                      Forfeited invested accounts totaled
                                      $154,695 and $25,498 at December 31, 1998
                                      and 1997, respectively. Forfeitures in the
                                      amount of $27,982 and $7,792 were used to
                                      pay the Plan expenses during the years
                                      ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,
                                      respectively.

                                      VESTING

                                      The portion of a participant's account
                                      attributed to elective contributions and
                                      rollover contributions is nonforfeitable
                                      at all times. Vesting (i.e.,
                                      nonforfeitable rights to the portion of a
                                      participant's account arising from
                                      employer matching contributions) is based
                                      upon the number of years of service, with
                                      a year generally being a Plan year in
                                      which the participant accumulates at least
                                      1,000 employment hours. Vesting starts
                                      with the completion of two years of
                                      service at the rate of 40% and increases
                                      20% for each subsequent year until full
                                      vesting is achieved with five or more
                                      years. Notwithstanding the number of years
                                      of service, a participant is considered
                                      fully vested at the normal retirement age
                                      of sixty-five, in the event of death, or
                                      should the participant incur a disability
                                      which is considered to be total and
                                      permanent. The Plan provides special
                                      vesting rules with regard to any benefits
                                      a participant may have from a plan that
                                      was merged into the TMP Worldwide Inc.

                                      PAYMENT OF BENEFITS

                                      Benefits are generally payable in the form
                                      of a lump sum following a participant's
                                      termination of employment or death. The
                                      portion of a participant's account
                                      attributed to benefits from a merged plan,
                                      however, is subject to specific rules.
                                      Provision is also made for a participant
                                      to request a withdrawal of all or a
                                      portion of the participant's account
                                      attributed to elective contributions after
                                      the attainment of age 59-1/2. Further,
                                      upon the showing of substantial hardship,
                                      and in accordance with specific rules set
                                      forth in the Plan concerning hardship
                                      withdrawals, a participant may withdraw
                                      that portion of their account attributed
                                      to the remaining employer matching
                                      contributions that have vested and the
                                      amount of elective deferrals which have
                                      not previously been withdrawn.

                                      PARTICIPANT LOANS

                                      In general, a participant may borrow an
                                      amount not exceeding the lesser of $50,000
                                      or 50% of the vested portion of their
                                      account.

                                      If the proceeds of the loan are to be
                                      applied to the purchase of a dwelling
                                      which will be used as a principal
                                      residence of the participant, the
                                      repayment period shall be as agreed upon
                                      by the Plan Administrator and the
                                      borrowing participant. If the proceeds of
                                      the loan are used for any other purpose,
                                      the repayment of the loan must be made
                                      within five years. Interest will be
                                      charged at an annual rate which is
                                      comparable to a commercial rate for a
                                      similar type of loan. Principal and
                                      interest payments will be due at a
                                      frequency no longer than quarterly and,
                                      with respect to employees, will be made by
                                      payroll deductions.

                                      The loans are collateralized by the
                                      participants' interest in their accounts.

                                      ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

                                      Certain administrative expenses of the
                                      Plan are paid by the Plan Administrator.

                                                                             10

   2.       ACCOUNTING POLICIES       BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

                                      The financial statements of the Plan have
                                      been prepared on the accrual method of
                                      accounting.

                                      USE OF ESTIMATES

                                      The preparation of financial statements in
                                      conformity with generally accepted
                                      accounting principles requires management
                                      to make estimates and assumptions that
                                      affect the reported amounts of assets,
                                      liabilities, and changes therein, and
                                      disclosures of contingent assets and
                                      liabilities. Actual results could differ
                                      from those estimates.

                                      RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

                                      In September 1999, the Accounting
                                      Standards Executive Committee issued
                                      Statement of Position ("SOP") No. 99-3,
                                      "Accounting for and Reporting of Certain
                                      Defined Contribution Plan Investments and
                                      Other Disclosure Matters". SOP No. 99-3
                                      simplifies disclosures for certain
                                      investments. It eliminates the requirement
                                      for a defined contribution plan to present
                                      Plan investments by general type for
                                      participant directed investments in the
                                      statement of net assets available for plan
                                      benefits, to disclose participant directed
                                      investment programs and the number of
                                      units and net asset value per unit, and to
                                      disclose benefit responsive investment
                                      contracts by investment fund option. It
                                      also requires disclosure of nonparticipant
                                      directed investments that represent 5
                                      percent or more of net assets available
                                      for Plan benefits. SOP No. 99-3 is
                                      effective for financial statements for
                                      Plan years ending after December 15, 1999.
                                      The Plan has elected early adoption of SOP
                                      No. 99-3 and the accompanying financial
                                      statements have been prepared in
                                      accordance with this SOP.

                                      INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME
                                      RECOGNITION

                                      Investments are stated at fair value,
                                      which is determined by reference to quoted
                                      market prices, except for participant
                                      loans which are stated at cost plus
                                      accrued interest, which approximates their
                                      fair value. Unrealized appreciation or
                                      depreciation of investments is reflected
                                      in the financial statements.

   3.  INVESTMENTS                    During 1998 and 1997, the Plan's

                                      investments bought and sold, as well as
                                      held during the year) appreciated in value
                                      by $2,243,438 and $3,250,904,

   4.       INCOME TAX STATUS         The Internal Revenue Service has
                                      determined and informed the Plan
                                      Administrator, in a letter dated May 8,
                                      1995, that the Plan is qualified and the
                                      trust established under the Plan is
                                      tax-exempt under the appropriate sections
                                      of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC").
                                      Although the Plan has been amended since
                                      receiving the determination letter, the
                                      Plan Administrator believes that the Plan
                                      is designed and is currently being
                                      operated in compliance with the applicable
                                      requirements of the IRC and will obtain a
                                      new determination letter. Issues have been
                                      identified that will require corrections;
                                      the Plan Administrator is currently
                                      addressing such issues and expects them to
                                      be resolved with no effect on the Plan's
                                      tax-exempt status. Therefore, no provision
                                      for income taxes has been included in the
                                      Plan's financial statements.

                                                                             12

   5.   TRUSTEE AND CUSTODIAN         The funds of the Plan are maintained under
                                      a Trust with CG Trust Company until March
                                      31, 1998 and the Charles Schwab Trust
                                      Company, thereafter, as Trustee. The
                                      duties and authority of the Trustee are
                                      defined in the related Trust Agreement.

                                      The Connecticut General Life Insurance
                                      Company ("CIGNA") was the appointed
                                      Custodian of the Plan until March 31,
                                      1998. Effective April 1, 1998, the
                                      Custodian of the Plan has changed from
                                      CIGNA to Charles Schwab Retirement Plan
                                      Services. The duties of the Custodian have
                                      remained the same as they were under
                                      CIGNA. The duties of the Custodian include
                                      administration of the trust fund
                                      (including income therefrom) at the
                                      direction of the Trustee, and the payment
                                      of benefits and loans to plan participants
                                      and the payment of expenses incurred by
                                      the Plan in accordance with instructions
                                      from the Plan Administrator and Trustee
                                      (with the option given to participants to
                                      individually direct the investment of
                                      their interest in the Plan). The Custodian
                                      is also responsible for the maintenance of
                                      the individual participant records and to
                                      render statements to the participants as
                                      to their interest in the Plan.


   6.       TERMINATION               Although it has not expressed any intent
                                      to do so, each participating employer has
                                      the right under the Plan to discontinue
                                      its contributions at any time and to
                                      terminate its participation in the Plan,
                                      subject to the provisions of ERISA. If the
                                      Plan is fully or partially terminated, all
                                      amounts credited to the affected
                                      participants' accounts will become fully
                                      vested.

                                      Upon termination, the Plan Administrator
                                      shall take steps necessary to have the
                                      assets of the Plan distributed among the
                                      affected participants.

                                                                             13

   7.       AMOUNTS DUE               In order to ensure favorable tax treatment
            PARTICIPANTS AND          of participant accounts, the Plan must not
            AMOUNTS DUE FROM          exceed certain maximums for employee
            EMPLOYER                  elective contributions and employer
                                      matching contributions of highly
                                      compensated employees as defined in the
                                      IRC. The Plan must take appropriate
                                      actions and make corrective distribution
                                      of excess contributions or make additional
                                      contributions to the accounts of
                                      non-highly compensated employees if IRC
                                      requirements are not met. The Plan's
                                      nondiscrimination contribution testing
                                      resulted in an adjustment to employee
                                      contributions, as well as associated
                                      income by means of refunds to highly
                                      compensated employees ("HCE") with a
                                      one-on-one contribution to non-highly
                                      compensated employees ("NHCE"). The Plan
                                      allows participants to contribute up to
                                      15% of their compensation into the Plan.
                                      The contribution rate for certain
                                      participants exceeded the allowable
                                      contribution limit resulting in
                                      adjustments to employee contributions, as
                                      well as associated income by means of
                                      refunds to participants. At December 31,
                                      1997, the Plan had no amounts due to
                                      participants or amounts due from employer.

                                      At December 31, 1998, the Plan had amounts
                                      due participants for the current year
                                      excess employee contributions and
                                      associated income adjustments as follows:
