I've never worn my pin to an interview. You never know if your interviewer is anti-greek, or if s/he rushed and fell in love with your GLO only to be cut leaving him/her bitter, or if s/he has an ex who is in your GLO, etc... I'm not saying these are good reasons to not offer a job to a particular candidate, but I'm sure it does happen.

I don't list AEPhi on my resume, either, even though I held an exec position. I've been out of school for five years already - I'd rather have my resume focus on my work experience, certifications, and recent community involvement.

The "trouble", if you will, with AEPhi's badge is that it is so obviously a GLO badge - unlike a key, arrow, etc. We also are not allowed to turn it into any other form of jewelry (otherwise I would have turned my new member pin into a pendant long ago). So, when I go to an interview, my badge stays home.
