To Those w/ Regional Boutique SAs

For those who have done SAs at no-name regional boutiques, how was your experience? I have no idea how to measure/judge the deal flow at a boutique SA. So, how did you guys know if your SA will give you meaningful transactional experience? And did you guys end up with FT investment banking jobs?
