just to further the high-jacking of this thread. . .
I don't think the point was that being from a so-called top-tier chapter would get you hired. Being from a group with a strong national/international presence _could_ help in networking/finding out about job openings/finding a mentor in your field.
As young women move around the country and world, a strong alumnae program (lots of alumnae groups in lots of places, an online community where career connections can be made, etc.) can be a big help.
I think alumnae opportunities should be a part of choosing a sorority, but let's face it, most of our collegiate members don't really know yet what being an alumna member really means, so how can that really come through in recruitment?
I must fess up that I am from a Northeast chapter and live in northern California, where sorority affiliations mean nothing (or worse) to the general public. So, take my opinion for what it's worth.
