180 DC club: work exp or extracurriculars?

Hi everyone! I'm a final year Masters student in Europe. I'm planning to apply for positions at MBB and Tier 2 (T2) consulting firms in the Middle-East starting in August (internships and full-time jobs). The problem is, I haven't been able to find a strategy or consulting internship for the summer. The only consulting experience listed on my CV is my role as a senior consultant at 180 DC. Should I include that in the "Work Experience" or "Extracurricular Activities" section? Thank you!

You can include it as work experience. 

At the end of the day, what the recruiters care about is what you learned while working there, not whether and how much you were paid. 

If you have any other questions, reach out. And since you're now preparing your applications for MBB, you might find this guide useful:
