The labor market springs back to life in March as employers add 178,000 jobs

U.S. employers added jobs in March, reversing the losses from the month before. Health care and hospitality were among the sectors adding workers.

The U.S. job market perked up last month as employers added 178,000 jobs. The unemployment rate dipped to 4.3%, mainly because the number of people seeking work declined.
