"The last three quarters of revised data for 2015 were essentially flat, with the first quarter of 2016 showing a loss of 137,000," said Gad Levanon, chief economist, North America at the Conference Board. “For about the past year, employer demand has been in a hold pattern, but the most recent quarter’s data indicates some additional weakness in demand.”

In the U.S. there were 1.47 ads per 100 people, unchanged from 1.47 in February.
