SBU RA writing portion, resume, and interview

I’m a freshmen, im applying I want to know my chances, I travel a lot and I know they like diversity I was wondering if I should mention that in the writing portion and if i get the interview

my resume right now is i have a job on campus with the food concessions so I work at ESD and the retail stores there and they place me in roth and other food places, I work with serving, preparing and handling food and swiping IDS. Iam part of hall council, im also part of the pre nursing society club, i have my life guard certification and CPR and AED certification so i feel like that would look good because i can help in case emergencies, and i have some volunteer experience but not much. also my grades are pretty good, so what are my chances are looking like and is there some stuff i shouldn’t include?

Also what are the interview question like? does anyone have a copy ? and can my boss be reccomandtion letter

You have a nice resume. Mention whatever you think would prove you're fit to support fellow students, have a positive attitude, and handle uncomfortable situations. The interview usually asks about your experiences, what you would do in the role, and situational questions. Talk to the RAs in your building, I'm sure they're wiling to provide their insight.
