Some GLOs ask on the rec form whether you know the rushee personally or through an acquaintance.
Even when I know the girl quite well, I always ask for a resume for sorority recs. I do the same for college applicants that I interview for the admissions office of my alma mater. For me, it's easier to highlight the prospective's achievements and accomplishments when I have a hard copy to which to refer.
After my initial contact to line up recs, my daughter sent a cover letter and resume to all the women who are writing her recommendations to the Panhel chapters at her future school. In the letter, she expressed a willingness to be interviewed by the women who do not know her personally.
