Original Note:
The 15.4M (15.37M) jobs created total is missing important context. The April 2024 figure is 5.977M higher than the Feb. 2020 peak of employment before COVID-19 forced massive shutdowns and layoffs. It’s more accurate to say 9.393M jobs were recovered and 5.977M created. https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/CES0000000001
