WASHINGTON - For the first time since 1999, American employers have added more than 200,000 jobs a month for four straight months, offering more evidence that the U.S. economy is steadily growing while much of Europe and Asia struggle.
Last month's gain of 217,000 jobs means the economy has finally recovered all the jobs lost to the Great Recession. The unemployment rate, which is derived from a separate survey, matched April's 6.3 per cent, the lowest in more than five years.
The unempolyment rates for professionals, which are qualified for H1B visa, are more promising. The United States defines full employment unemployment rate as 4% for persons aged 16 and over.
