The labor market improved in April for low-skilled workers. The unemployment rate for workers with less than a high-school education dropped considerably, to 5.4% from 5.9% in March. High-school graduates also saw their unemployment rate drop, to 3.5% from 3.7%.

The most educated are still the most likely to be employed: College graduates' unemployment rate was 2.1% in April and for workers with some college it was 3.1%.
