People attend a job fair in Detroit, Michigan in this March 1 file photo. U.S. job growth likely slowed in May and the unemployment rate probably ticked up, but not by enough to upset the view that the economy is bouncing back strongly after a winter slump. Employers probably added 218,000 jobs to their payrolls last month, according to a Reuters survey of economists. While that would be a step down from April’s robust 288,000 job gain, it would still be above the average for the preceding six months.SD-Agencies
