trust your gut.  they&#x27;re sales people, not technical people, so judge them by the appropriate metrics.  i.e.:<p>are they putting you in front of the right companies?  are they asking you questions about your needs?  are they pitching <i>you</i> on the <i>job</i> (it should be worthy of a pitch), as well as vice versa?  are they working with the right hiring budget?<p>these are the basic questions you use to judge the quality of a sales person.  they have to &quot;get it&quot; on a relationship level, not a technical level.
