Vetting Crew or Captain

I am looking at taking on crew that I don't know. I have never done this before. It is for an Atlantic Crossing. In order to do this I was wondering if anyone could tell me of their experiences with taking on crew, good or bad. I know enough to say that it is important to be very clear ahead of time on what is expected from a crew both in terms of work and costs. I also know to be very clear in terms of no drugs etc. Do any of you have any tricks that you use to vett a crew or captain.
