Just one opinion here. Sure others will chime in. Most houses alraedy have a number of pnms that are high on their radar or who they know they will want. This is from in-house actives talking up their friends, from Holiday parties, from preview, from spring teas, from active chapter alums talking certain pnms up, active chapter alum recs, following up girls on social media, asking about pnms around home town, etc. So, going in, there are some pnms that have a leg up, so to speak just because they are lower risk/high return pnms based on available information and observation. (This can cut the other way, of course, if a pnm is a questionable reputation or is not well regarded by the actives from the pnm's area). But its not like any house knows they have any pnm in the bag, anyway, but they may have a good feel for fit (or lack of fit) for a large number of pnms -- particulary in-state. If you are not yet on any radar and just show up at recruitment, you can still do well and get bids to top houses because it is just more challenging and you have so little time to make impression in the early rounds of recruitment. This is one reason why OOS girls disproportionally end up at new row houses (which some would say benefits the new row houses enormously and, if you want to meet people from all over the country and be sisters with girls all over the country, a new row house may be best). Good luck.
