Apply to be an IBA ambassador

• You must be an enrolled RSM IBA student in September 2024.
• You are available for the entire academic year 2024-2025.
• You are enthusiastic and have good social skills.
• You are willing to communicate with prospective students via WhatsApp and our digital peer-to-peer platform, Unibuddy. This means you may have to spend approximately 15 min a day on Unibuddy, even during a busy period.
• You are not shy in approaching prospective students to offer them information at the open days.
• You are responsible and reliable when you carry out your tasks.
• You have no problem speaking to large groups of people and holding presentations.
• You are willing to respond to short-notice requests about campus tours and school visits.
• You respond quickly to e-mails and are well-organized.
• You are willing to prioritize Ambassador work over other extracurricular activities/side-jobs that you undertake.
• Since we need to arrange a contract for you, you must be in the possession of a Burgerservicenummer (BSN) for the entire year 2024-2025 (which means registering your address with the municipality) and you must acquire a Dutch basic health insurance* which is required by Dutch law if you have a working contract. You have to make the arrangements for the insurance yourself.

*Please note that there is a subsidy to help you cover the costs of your health insurance, but you must be living in the Netherlands when your contract starts in order to apply for it.
