Which startup should I go to?
I'm a student at Hyper Island (http://www.hyperisland.com/) in Sweden and I'm going on an internship after the summer holidays. I really want to go to startup in the San Francisco area but I'm a bit unsure which one I want to go to.
I really love what Nest.com, Stripe.com, SquareUp.com and Pinterest.com are doing. They are solving real problems and seem to have a lot of talented people with them.
Where would you go if you where in my situation?
Thanks in advance to all the amazing HN-people.

- avsaro 15y agoI don't think any one of the startups which you mention currently looking for interns.
- holgersindbaek 15y agoI'm sure there must be a way to persuade companies to take you as an intern. Do you have any suggestions on startups you think are doing some really interesting stuff in the San Fran area?
- avsaro 15y agoI believe that these companies are in early stages of their life which is a more chaotic era of a company. I would suggest startup-like bigger companies such as Twitter and Facebook.
- holgersindbaek 15y agoThat's what I want to get into. We've had several former students from this school who've joined these chaotic startups. I think it sounds fantastic.
- sfkaos 15y agoPaid or unpaid intern?
- holgersindbaek 15y agoPaid would be nicest, but if it's a really cool place, where you can learn a lot, unpaid would do too.
