Hello
I have a very specific question related to community service. I quit my job 6 months back and since then have been volunteering work in a private hospital (Not a non-profit organization) in Mumbai, India. I decided to volunteer work in a private hospital because i wanted to help people and contribute to my community and at the same time gain some experience in administrative work. I have a 3 years of experience in Information Technology (IT) field and I am interested in perusing MBA in IT or IT related MBA's.
My question to you are:
1> will my volunteer work in private hospital considered community service by admission committee?
2> Can I put my volunteer work experience in my resume while applying to MBA programs?
2> As I took a break from work to do volunteer work will that be taken negatively by the admission committee?
I look forward to receiving your reply.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Ami

Yes, you should mention your volunteer experience if it is significant and full-time (which it sounds like it is). As for whether it will negatively affect your chances or not, it depends. If an adcom senses that you are doing it to "position yourself for b-school" it will be a negative. If it comes across as something that you genuinely would've done irrespective of b-school, then it could be a neutral to a positive thing, depending on your individual circumstances.
