I have a brother who was a former GM of a Kappa Sig colony and he got his job primarily because he was able to indiciate that he recruited a large number of people and that directly impacted his job (he's a headhunter) moreso than his psych degree did. He also had extensive campus leadership positions and was a relatively sane fellow.

That said, I put my greek experience on my resume. I also indicate being the President of two major clubs, the Secretary of Model UN and having had five years work experience p/t through university. I'd like to think people will hire me because of my education and work experience, not because we both know words and secrets of an organization. Would you hire a man, sight unseen because he was a Mason or a Deke (because so many US presidents have been Masons or Dekes)? Likewise, being a Kappa Sig isn't a reason to hire me, but rather another way to indicate community involvement.
