The game offers you companions one at a time, so I normally just take them as they come. Once the party is full, the new member has to be better than I have, or they don't join. The way you play will determine whether the new recruit matches your needs.

You didn't mention which game you were starting. Some people have played DS1 with just a team of packmules.

It's also viable to be a racist/sexist, and recruit only elves, or non-elves, or all males/females. I'm not sure if there are enough dwarves or half-giants for a full party without mods.
