Umm no.
Selling shoes at Macy's is sales, plain and simple.
There are quite a few more things (most having to do with human emotions) that go into sorority recruitment.
And you were in a sorority in college, so there's NO way you can look at it the same way that an AI who never participated in collegiate Greek life could. Even if you weren't a rush chair, you rushed women in a collegiate setting and you have that experience in your memory bank.
ETA the initiating an active sister's mom to do any sort of advising (or even a mom who is already a sister or another sorority's alum) can be fine or a complete bloody trainwreck...been there, done that, t-shirt...so proceed with extreme caution. Basically it can be like working in a family business which can be very very good or very very bad.
