UNEMPLOYMENT 4.1%, 231,000 JOBS ADDED, 0.1 PCT WAGE GAIN

bls.gov

Looks like all the prior months were revised up significantly due to the new adjustments to a total of 440,000 additional for the last two months combined. May employment probably would've been about 400,000 to 450,000 using the old adjustments. The heavy number of Census jobs added as a proportion in the current month employment probably depressed the wage gain figure as well.
