Finding roommates that are not in finance?
I'm graduating this winter and will a full-time position in investment banking this spring. A friend from college doing sales and trading will also be rooming with me, but we are looking for 1-2 more roommates. Preferably, they would not be in finance (journalism, law, tech, etc) so it would be a more interesting roommate situation - I don't want us to be discussing the financial markets after a long day at work.
How would we go about finding such people? I know it seems self-defeating to post this question on a finance forum but I don't know where else to post this.
Facebook
Any fb groups in particular you would recommend?
I posted an ad on Craigslist in NYC looking for two girls and received about 50 responses, interviewed 10 and chose two. It worked out pretty well.
Why girls exclusively?
It was a true 4BR and we previously had 4 guys and two moved out so we were looking for a good dynamic of 2 guys + 2 girls and it was a phenomenal success. We had the best parties and the girls had a lot of friends they would bring over - it worked out well.
Facebook market places and housing groups. Any of them are good. Just make some posts, there are lots of people interested
Try Roomi, Diggz and Spareroom
I’ve used Roomi before for a sublet, it was helpful and a relatively straightforward process
