The unemployment rate fell to 10.2%, also better than the 10.6% forecast.
Leisure and hospitality showed the strongest hiring numbers. A torrent of hiring in the food services industry was almost solely responsible for the blowout jobs number in the sector as restaurants added back to payrolls chefs, waitstaff and bartenders.
