The pace of hiring picked up again in April after an initially slow start earlier this spring. Unemployment dipped to 4.4%, the lowest level in almost a decade. If the rate drops again it will match a historic 16-year-low.
Healthcare added 19,500 jobs in April. Hiring within ambulatory care contributed largely to the growth seen in the healthcare sector, accounting for nearly three-quarters of all job creation. Jobs within the acute care setting grew by about 4,000.
