Out of work? These companies are hiring right nowWhen it comes to finding a job during the COVID-19 pandemic, work from home careers are the most highly sought after. The risk is much lower for both employers and workers, as well as the fact that you're no longer limited by the place you live. If you're looking for work, we have the listings you're looking for. Here are 20 new openings — including WFH opportunities — to get your job search going. Tap or click here to see what the job market looks like. → | How to erase everything Google knows about youWhether you realize it or not, every time you leave your search history in place, you're feeding Google more data. The same goes for when you watch videos on YouTube, put information into your Google profile or talk to Google Assistant by voice. But as scary as this might seem, there is a silver lining: You can actually delete almost everything you've shared with Google and get your privacy back. Here's how. Tap or click here to see how to clear out data Google has on you. → |

Your smartphone can save your lifeNate Felix was in a car accident. He says that his iPhone saved his life. You need to know how. When Nate's Jeep flipped over last month, he couldn’t move. He got help by saying "Hey Siri" loud enough for his phone to make the call for him. Paralyzed from his neck down, Nate would have likely died of hypothermia overnight without medical attention. Listen to his story in this great call from the Kim Komando Show. Tap or click here to see this amazing story. → |

Packages getting stolenQ: There's been a rash of package thefts in my neighborhood. I'm home all day, but it's easy for someone to slip onto the porch and make a quick getaway.

Hiring is hard! HelpQ: I need to add someone new to my team at work, and honestly I don't have the time to wade through a ton of resumes and I don't know where to start with hiring remotely. Any tips? A: You can throw the posting up on all kinds of free job boards, but you're right — that will mean a ton of work sorting through all the candidates who aren't right for the position. LinkedIn Jobs can help by matching your role with qualified candidates so that you can find the right person quickly.
