Retail industry adds 29,000 jobs in April
``The retail industry -- the largest private sector employer -- rebounded from a dismal March and added 29,000 jobs in April, indicating that retailers remain cautious but are seeing signs of an improving economy, and as a result, added to their payrolls heading into the summer,'' said NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay.
The Labor Department releases its jobs report for March today, and many economists believe figures will show that 210,000 jobs were added to the economy last month.
