ChromeOS: Tips, tools, and other Chromebook intelligence
Google’s ChromeOS platform sure has come a long way.
From the early days, when ChromeOS was little more than an experimental “browser in a box,” to today — with the platform powering first-class hardware and supporting a diverse range of productivity applications — Google’s once-crazy-seeming project has turned into one of the world’s most intriguing and rapidly expanding technological forces.
I’ve been covering ChromeOS closely since the start. I lived with the first Chromebook prototype, the Cr-48, and have used Chromebooks as part of my own personal computing setup in varying capacities ever since. I write about the field not only as someone who’s studied it professionally from day 1 but also as someone who has used it personally that entire time, up through today.
Get on the job ladder early with savvy tips for work-hungry students
ARE you on course for top A-level grades, and a place at university, when you open your results next Thursday?
Or seeking an alternative to further education by getting your-self straight into work?
University isn’t the only path for A-Level students. Internships and entry-level jobs can also help you get on the ladder early[/caption]
While official figures from universities and colleges admission service UCAS show 44 per cent of 18-year-olds have applied for higher education courses this year, there are plenty of other options.
The cost-of-living crisis means nine in ten students are reassessing which route to take, so here are some of the choices . . .
- ENTRY-LEVEL JOBS: Start at the bottom and work your way up. Sectors including leisure and hospitality, retail, travel and logistics all have vacancies for A-level leavers. Search for these at findajob.dwp.gov.uk or apply direct to companies.
- APPRENTICESHIPS: This traditional route is enjoying a huge revival with over 500 different job types on offer. Gain professional qualifications in your chosen field and earn as you learn. Visit apprenticeships.gov.uk.

Gig opportunities
Whether heading to university or waiting to start a career, you can gain work experience and make extra cash with micro- tasking apps. Unigigster.com matches up businesses with local students.
Founder Chirag Basavaraj says: “It provides business owners with access to a potential gig workforce of over 2.3million, sidestepping more traditional and expensive hiring processes.”
Similarly, Redwigwam.com has thousands of summer jobs for A-level leavers.
CEO Lorna Davidson says: “We’ve got lots of flexible work for students this summer and they can mix and match the type they do. We pay quickly and it’s a great opportunity to build their CV with a variety of experience.”
Be good in a crisis
WITH more than a million current vacancies across the UK, A-level leavers are being urged to target short-staffed sectors.
Jennifer Johansson, CEO of recruitment platform Placed App, believes new school leavers can help ease the country’s ongoing staffing crisis.
Jennifer Johansson recommends demonstrating commitment as a good way to build reputation[/caption]
She says: “With some sectors struggling to attract the right talent, you have an opportunity to make them an offer.
Demonstrate your willingness to learn and you could become a valued under-study for someone who really needs more hands on deck.
Look at areas you might enjoy a career in, that are struggling to recruit.
In such cases, it can be easier to negotiate wages up, particularly once you build experience and reputation.”

No too late to change
NOT got the results you needed but still want to go to university? Or did you do better than expected? Then find a course through clearing.
David Seaton, assistant director of admissions at the University of Bedfordshire, says: “Clearing has a reputation as a rushed process where you make a big decision in a hurry but it doesn’t need to be.”
David Seaton recommends researching different universities you might approach for clearing, just in case[/caption]
Here he explains how best to use clearing . . .
BE CLEAR ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT FROM UNI: Do you want to be closer to home or live in a city? Is the type of course on offer the most important thing for you
THINK BEFORE YOU SWITCH: You might be tempted to use clearing to switch universities after receiving your A-level results, especially if you got better than you expected. Be cautious and do your research. Would another university really be the best fit for you?
HAVE INFORMATION TO HAND: You will need your UCAS ID, a list of the courses you are interested in and full names of the qualifications.

ASK QUESTIONS: Once you start speaking to universities the process can happen really quickly. Make sure you understand everything that is being said to you and, if you do not, simply ask.
KEEP CALM AND HAVE AN OPEN MIND: Clearing is a great opportunity to find the course of your dreams and even if you do not get your first choice of course, there will be others that will be right for you. See beds.ac.uk/clearing.
