Group Chat for Incoming Pinterest/SF Interns

Hey Guys, Is there some kind of group chat for incoming interns at Pinterest/Uber/Twitter etc...? I accepted an offer at Pinterest and I want start looking for housing early and I assume it would be cheaper to find house mates rather than living alone? So is there a group chat like that here or on other platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, Reddit etc...

Blind not very good for interns tbh. I suggest asking your recruiter about it.

Good idea

Go with corporate housing. It’s a much better intern experience than using the stipend to find your own housing.

You won't. You're a winter intern. There are only like 6 to 7 of you. Every winter intern I know got full corporate housing

^ do this since you're a winter intern. You'll get a really nice corporate housing.

Yeah corporate housing really isn't the best if you value privacy, but was worth it for me bc of the convenience. Finding housing for the summer is hard, and near impossible this early
