Same way you evaluate developers. Say you are a manager at a company who needs to hire somebody to develop an application for you. You aren't technical. You have no idea if you need the thing the consultant is saying you need. So you check completed works, existing client testimonials, educational history, recommendations from coworkers or friends, etc.
- arcticbull 7y agoJust wait until you get a reference request on your last colonoscopy :P Seriously though in general managers have worked in and around technical people before, and their role in the process is to evaluate qualitatively. Are they a good communicator? Do they seem like awful people? They use feedback from the engineers to estimate if they're good engineers. I don't have a deep bench of M.D.s to lean on to figure this stuff out.
