First, you need to fill out a form with questions about your course and yourself. They ask about your time management skills and why you'd be a good student ambassador, able to be friendly and inclusive. Then, they send you an email for an online recorded interview. You can practice the software and they give you mock questions. The interview questions are usually about how you would approach students struggling with university life, and about your course and management skills.
