It's been asked before and here Rand Fishkin talks about a shortlist of criteria you could use before choosing someone to deal with the SEO of your site.

Whiteboard Friday

SEO Metrics - The how to. 18th February 2013 10:54 AM
Found two good posts over at the Moz. Will post the other one now from Rand Fishkin, but this post specifically takes a good look at SEO Metrics.

Understanding the correct metric to use in any given situation is a large part of the skill of a consultant or marketer. I constantly find myself recommending different metrics in different situations.

That's a huge bump (almost 2 years), I think its safe to say that Chris has found what they are looking for or is beyond the realms of caring about the thread to update it.
