Having a rhythm section is a valuable part of every jazz band. An interviewer will certainly want to see how you organize this section. This way, the administration will catch the vision you have in store.

"For a rhythm section in the jazz band, I want to have a drummer, as well as the rhythm guitar. These two aligned make a world of difference in jazz band. A bassist who is connected with the drummer will help in the feel, too."
