Check if they have worked on projects similar to yours. Look for success stories and examples of campaigns. See if their style matches what you're looking for.
How do I make sure we understand each other about the project goals?
Write down what you want to achieve before you start. Share this with the strategist and ask for their input. This makes sure you both see eye to eye.
