advice on becoming an RA?

<p>So I've been training this week as a CA, and it has really solidified my desire to be an RA. I was wondering if any other more knowledgeable students out there had advice on what would be the best things to pursue in the two months I have between now and the start of the application process. I've been researching programming ideas, and getting to know everyone in my dorm (although that isn't a lot, since only reslife kids have moved in). I don't think RHA is really viable for me, since I'm not exactly a political person. Should I just keep doing what I'm doing and not sweat it?</p>

<p>I was also wondering if anyone had any information on what the process entails, since it isn't up on resnet for this coming year yet and they've disabled the information from last year. Is it just a paper application, and then interviews? Thanks!</p>
