WASHINGTON, D.C. (WOWO): The U.S. Economy added 223,000 jobs in May, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The unemployment rate also dropped to 3.8%.

Jennifer Winkeljohn, Branch Manager at Robert Half International in Fort Wayne, tells WOWO News it’s certainly good news for the economy and the Trump Administration:

“We’ve seen consistency this year as far as growth. Month over month, we’ve seen all sectors hiring. There was some concern as far as retail, but retail is actually up 13,000.”

Manufacturing jobs are also up 18,000 from April, according to the full report, which you can find here.
