If you're putting your affiliation on your resume just to say you're a member then it probably won't help and could hurt. If, on the other hand, you had leadership experience/ training that is applicable to the position you're seeking then it should be on their. For example, if you were chapter treasurer and managed a $300,000 annual budget then that is an important job skill that deserves mention.

Do I have my affiliation on my resume? Yes, I do. The experience and training I've received as an international officer add value to my employer. Would I still have it on my resume if I was not actively serving in a leadership capacity? I doubt it....

The true value that you receive from membership is the ability to MAKE connections. It isn't automatically from wearing the pin/ letters or putting it on a resume. Try logging onto the 'sisters-only' side of your GLO's website. There may be helpful resources and ways to make connections there.

Good luck!
