This morning’s
release of the March jobs report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
revealed that last month, private-sector employment rose to an all-time high,
finally surpassing the pre-recession peak.

Shobhana Chandra
and Ilan Kolet at Bloomberg News charted the composition of post-crisis payroll growth by industry.

The
number of people employed in manufacturing
and construction jobs are still 12% and 20% below the pre-recession highs, respectively.
