TL;DR- just graduated, moving to the city, does this plan of attack seem feasible?

Hi all.

I Just graduated from university in Nashville. I've done a plethora of internships in my area(entertainment industry) during my undergrad, including one in NYC, one in San Fran, and one in Buenos Aires. I spent a week in NY back in mid-November and had about five job interviews there during that time, all of whom said to stay in touch. I just returned from a post-grad trip where I had two follow up interviews-- no offers, but they both said even if they had something to offer me they couldn't do anything until I was local to the area.

I am confident that I will be able to find a position within a month or so. If not, I know I'll be able to make ends meet until I do, whether that's waiting tables or something else. I have a spectacular resume & references which speak for themselves. I have spent time there and know the city decently well, and have an okay-ish network of friends and family there. Given all this, I kind of decided to pull the trigger and go ahead and take the plunge.

I'm going up for New Years from the 29th through the 1st. Over the course of the past month, I've just been bookmarking rooms/shares that seem like they might be a good fit, money and people wise, just to get an idea. I decided that taking a room / subletting in an already filled place would be best-- I have local friends there and etc sure, but without having that safety net of friends to hang around with and go out with, I figured slipping into an apartment that already has people of vaguely similar mindset there would be best.

As of right now I'm in the process of moving out of my place in Nashville. My intentions stand at emailing the shit out CL ads and seeing if I can come look at places on the 29th, 30th, possibly the 31st. Ideally I would find a place during that time, but if not, the plan B would be cancelling my return flight and couch-bumming until I found a place to live, at which point I'd come back down to Nashville to gather a few small things. I'm leaving most of my furniture here or selling it, and predominantly focusing on "furnished" places(i.e. comes with bed).

Does this sound like a feasible plan of attack? Given that, outside of NYE festivities(perhaps a concert or two), my #1 priority and focus would be finding a place, I can't imagine not being able to find something by January... 7th at the latest? Its a huge undertaking and I'm prepared for that. I just wanted to get /r/nyc's thoughts. Thanks fellas.
