I had the same problem, FWIW. I gave up about 3 pages in. I've hired a lot of technical people, but no non-technical people.

Matasano's careers page is the best I have ever seen.

For me, "hiring" our accountant/HR company was probably my hardest hire so far -- I used advice from an investor and then checked with a couple smart people (joshu, etc.) if they were good.

Patent lawyers were comparatively easy (one of the 20 smartest security people I know from cypherpunks became a lawyer and then a partner...), and for main lawyers, I went with a strong recommendation from an investor/friend, and they were next-door neighbors at the office.
