Jobs Report Shows Strong Hiring Momentum

“U.S. job growth continued at a robust pace in March while the unemployment rate fell, signs the labor market is booming as the Covid-19 pandemic recedes and more workers return to the labor force,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“Employers added 431,000 jobs in March, and the jobless rate fell to 3.6% from 3.8% a month earlier… The report marked the 11th straight month of job gains above 400,000, the longest such stretch of growth in records dating back to 1939.”
