This blog post does not contain content unique to the challenge of matching E+B, his suggestions are pretty standard for any hiring process.

It usually takes two to tango, just don't rush the process putting together your inner-circle. Find someone you really connect with, you'll be spending more time with them than your significant other. They might not be code/engineering savvy, but they definitely should have a firm understanding of technology and the moving pieces... even more than your average tech-scene-ster.
