I know in my chapter that women would come through with outstanding resumes, but at the end of the day if their personality did not come off well in recruitment there is no way we were going to take them. This is simply because we know we can find women who also have outstanding resumes but at the same time have great social skills.

SO TRUE. How many times has a girl been so-so on paper, but just really great and friendly in person? Alot of times.
I think every school has PNMs who come through who look STELLAR on paper, but have the conversation skills of a wet mop and just don't come across well.
Things like recs and grades are the STANDARD things that get your foot in the door. But you have to really be able to connect with sorority members and make them see you as someone they want to hang out with and be sisters with.
