Actually, you can't recruit Dark Brotherhood Assassins, members of the Dawnguard, Members of the Thieves Guild or Companions (the warriors in whiterun, not a follower) golly, thanks for clarifying that 80.43.176.15

you'd think Common Sense would be obvious about this. In most cases, IF they can become a follower, they can be recruited. Mostly, I use Housecarls after becoming Thane in several Holds.
