I have been working as a server for 4 years while completing university and have participated in considerable amounts of volunteer work at the same time in my field of interest. How should I frame my serving experience to have it positively reflect the qualities that MBA admissions will be looking for on my resume?
Advice much appreciated!

Do you have any internships or other full time corporate work experience? If you do, I would frame that experience in your "Work Experience" section of your resume. I would probably totally leave out the serving experience, or put it in the additional information at the bottom of the resume something like: "Head Server at XYZ Restauarant - 10 hours a week during college 2007-2011
I don't think I'd try to frame it as if you've received any corporate business experience, or to list your duties/jobs. The only time it MIGHT be relavent is if you managed the restaurant or had multiple workers below you. And even then, it might be a stretch.
This type of work experience won't be looked at on the same level as any other office environment working, but it can still be included to show that you worked during school and still recieved your x.xx GPA.
A quick side question, are you planning on going directly to get your MBA with no work experience after college? Do you have any internships you can frame in a good light?

Thanks for your reply.
No, I don't have any internship experience that I could use in my work experience section. I am applying to do my MBA with a focus in non-profit management, and I have worked for three different non-profits as a researcher, political liaison, and grant writer. All of this work, however, counts as volunteer experience and all of it was unpaid. I certainly have no corporate experience, and the only management experience I would be able to put on my resume would be "floor supervisor" at the restaurant I worked at and camp coordinator and instructor at summer soccer camps!
