Thinking of taking up extra paid work?
You can also apply to becoming a Warwick Digital Ambassador (WDA) by participating in Unibuddy online blogging and answering live questions.
These roles are different from the SELCS ambassadors we advertise here as WDAs are recruited and managed separately by the Marketing team at Warwick. You may be able to do both roles, if you are able to manage your part-time work alongside your study.
