ChapterBuilder
Best for chapters building a year-round names list, especially where the national or campus provides it.
OmegaFi
Best for campuses that run structured Greek recruitment with rounds and bid matching for every chapter.
PNMPulse or Rush+
Best for chapters that want candidate self-service profiles, voting rounds or bid tracking at a low price per cycle.
Delibity
Best for professional fraternities whose decisions rest on applications, interview rounds and a scored record.

How professional fraternity recruitment differs
Professional fraternity recruitment is built around evaluating candidates, not only meeting them. Business, engineering and pre-law fraternities usually open with an info night, then hold interviews, then vote.
The Daily Illini described business fraternity rush at Illinois this way: an information night for each organization, then "several rounds of interviews follow, lasting about 15 minutes each." Classes were around 30 to 40 new members. Delta Sigma Pi tells its chapters' Senior Vice Presidents to document the criteria used in membership selection and to follow the rules on eligibility and voting.
Social fraternity rush leans on events, conversations and bids. Professional fraternities also extend bids, but the decision often rests on how candidates did across interview rounds, and the chapter needs to be able to explain each decision afterwards. That difference decides which software fits: tools built for social rush track names, events and bids well, while a professional fraternity also needs to score interviews consistently.
What your national may already provide
Check with your national before buying anything, and ask your campus fraternity and sorority life office too. Some nationals and campuses provide recruitment software to their chapters, and paying for a second tool wastes money.
ChapterBuilder is offered at no cost to Alpha Delta Phi's chapters through a partnership, and Sigma Pi gave its chapters early access through Phired Up. OmegaFi's campus recruitment system is offered free through a partnership with the North American Interfraternity Conference.
On the public websites of three professional fraternities we checked, Alpha Kappa Psi, Delta Sigma Pi and Phi Gamma Nu, we didn't find a required or provided recruitment tool. Your national's officer resources may say otherwise, so ask your regional contact.

ChapterBuilder
ChapterBuilder is a recruitment CRM for fraternities, sororities, councils and campuses, and says it is used by over 3,900 chapters. Members add names, notes and tags, and paid plans add texting, tasks, a leaderboard and analytics. Its strength is relationship recruiting: making sure every member is meeting people all year.
For a professional fraternity, ChapterBuilder covers the top of the funnel well. It doesn't describe interview scoring, so chapters that use it often still score interviews elsewhere.
OmegaFi
OmegaFi's recruitment system is built for campus-run Greek recruitment, with registration, recruitment rounds, mobile voting and bid matching. It fits where your campus or council runs it for every chapter. Professional fraternities may recruit on their own schedule rather than a council's, so check whether your campus includes you.
PNMPulse
PNMPulse gives candidates self-service profiles and gives the chapter QR check-in, discussion queues, sentiment polling and instant votes. It is inexpensive at $50 to $100 a cycle. We didn't find interview scoring on its site. The guide to PNMPulse alternatives compares it with each option in more detail.
Rush+
Rush+ tracks prospects, runs unlimited voting rounds and tracks bids, at a flat rate per chapter per semester. It is built "by Greek life alumni, for Greek life chapters," and fits rush built on bids.
Delibity
Delibity is free recruitment software built with professional fraternities and finance and consulting clubs at Cornell. It covers the stages a professional fraternity runs. Candidates fill in a branching application with a résumé, members pair coffee chats and check people in at events, and interviewers score live on weighted rubrics. Every candidate gets one transcript, and the chapter votes live, with recusal.
Delibity doesn't track bids, and each chapter runs its own account. It doesn't offer a national view across chapters today.

How Delibity does this
Rooms, weights and rubric text in one place
An interview session has up to 10 rooms. Each room has up to 8 subscores: numeric with a weight, a dropdown, or pass/fail, each with its own rubric text.
Numeric weights in a room must add up to 100% before the session can be saved, so every interviewer scores on the same plan.
See the whole seasonScoring interviews when your tool doesn't
If your chapter already uses a Greek recruitment tool that doesn't score interviews, you can keep it and score interviews separately. That works. The risk is that scores and notes end up in a different place from the candidate's record, and someone has to join them before delibs.
To keep that join manageable:
- Use one rubric for every interviewer. Weighted criteria with written score levels for a 1, 3 and 5, as in the interview rubric template.
- Give each interviewer their own scoring sheet, so nobody overwrites anyone else's scores.
- Use the same candidate identifier everywhere, such as a school email, so scores can be matched to the right profile.
- Close scoring 48 hours before delibs, and have one officer copy the scores into each candidate's record.
If that copying takes more than an evening, the stage that decides your class is living outside your system. That is the point to consider a tool that scores interviews where the rest of the record lives.
How to choose for your chapter
Start from your process, not the feature lists. Write down your stages and what decides a candidate, then match a tool to that.
Ask your national first. If a tool is provided, see whether it covers your stages before paying for anything.
Find the deciding stage. If interviews decide your class, the tool must score interviews consistently. If bids and events decide it, a Greek recruitment tool fits.
Count the cost per year. A per-cycle or per-semester price adds up over two recruitment seasons a year.
Run one real stage. Rebuild last season's application or score one practice candidate in the tool before you commit.
Check the handover. Make sure next year's VP can start from this year's setup.

Questions chairs ask
What recruitment software do professional fraternities use?
Professional fraternities use a mix. Some run on Google Forms and Sheets. Some use a Greek recruitment tool such as ChapterBuilder, PNMPulse, Rush+ or OmegaFi, often when their national or campus provides one. Chapters that score interviews can use selective-recruitment software such as Delibity.
Is ChapterBuilder free?
ChapterBuilder has a free plan for 10 users and paid plans for more. Some nationals and campuses provide it to their chapters at no cost, such as Alpha Delta Phi through a partnership. Check with your national before paying.
Does my national require a recruitment tool?
On the public websites of Alpha Kappa Psi, Delta Sigma Pi and Phi Gamma Nu, we didn't find a required recruitment tool as of 2026-11-09. Your national's officer portal or regional contact is the place to confirm.
Can a professional fraternity use Delibity for rush?
Yes. Delibity handles the application, coffee chats, info night check-in, interview rounds with weighted rubrics, and the vote. It doesn't track bids, and each chapter runs its own account; there is no national view across chapters.
How do business fraternities run interviews?
Usually in several short rounds after an info night. The Daily Illini described rounds of about 15 minutes each at Illinois. A shared rubric with weighted criteria, used by every interviewer, keeps scores comparable across rounds and interviewers.
