Moving from Dubai to San Francisco (changing offices with Evercore) in a couple of weeks and wanted to have your views on best places to live and if you think it would be better to rent an apartment by myself or share one with a one/few to make friends and grow my circle of friends. Thanks!

If you can tolerate roommates, that would be highly recommended. Any neighborhood in sf is fine except tenderloin, and the bay view/Portola area.

Thanks! Any recommendation on where to find nice roommates? The idea is to rent a big luxurious apartment for 2-4 maximum with each one having his bedroom / bath :)

Would also recommend roommates to help meet people and get situated. Find a Facebook group for ppl looking for housing

During the pandemic we started incorporating SparkHire for one way video interviews and now my hiring managers are super attached to it.

Is there any argument to hold onto one way video interviews anymore or should I drop it?
