Top Tips:

Proofread - As with any application, proofreading is key. A well written and error-free application will make a good first impression.

Use of AI - AI tools can be helpful for organising or clarifying ideas but you should not use them to write your application. Your application should reflect your personal experiences, your voice and your individuality.

Personalise - We want to hear about you and your experiences. Whether they be voluntary, paid, academic or personal, tell us all about you! Emphasise what sets you apart from other applicants and showcases your unique value.

Show your passion - Tell us why the Team Rwanda project interests you personally. Take some time to look over the information on the University and Azizi Life websites to understand more about the project and what you can bring - as well as gain - from taking part.

Skills and experiences - If you don't have formal work experience, don't worry! You can talk about your hobbies, clubs, school projects or community volunteering. Be sure to provide examples that demonstrate your skills in your application.
