Anyone got any ideas???? Help needed

Try out the temporary sublet sections of Craigslist and Gumtree.

I've just got a room for 4 weeks on Craigslist for an internship which I also start next week in London.

I'm going to move from France to NY for my job and since it's a last-minute thing, I'm kind of anxious about my housing situation.
My employer recommends that I find a room in a residence for a week and then search for an apartment share on Craigslist when I arrive in NY. But I called all the residences and they have no room available.
Has anyone ever tried sublets on Craigslist? I liked the residence option because it's safe but I'm concerned about Internet listings.
Also, I know I'll probably be in NY by the end of the month but don't know the exact day of my departure yet. Is it easy to find a temporary place at the last minute? And my employer told me you can find a shared apartement in less than a week; is this true?

I read the entire thread before posting this, there isn't any info relevant to my case yet. Thanks in advance for your tips!

No problem!
I found a nice place to live while I look for something long term on Craigslist, but there are a LOT of scammers out there. Be sure never to pay before you get there and talk to the person on the phone before you make a decision.
Looking for something long term is not easy : lots of dirty apartments, or places that aren't furnished (I don't want to buy that stuff when I'm here only for a year!)... I hope I'll find soon!
