> 1) Set minimum qualifications
This is where things will go south for most big organizations anyway. They don't know what they need, or they can't specify what they need, and often this part is done by someone other than the team that actually needs people. So you find jobs where the requirements are 3 years of experience with C# and at least BSc in comp sci while the team needs someone to work on embedded C & Ada and they couldn't give a shit about BSc (or any other degree for that matter), just that you can do the job.

I'd argue that they don't, in which case you're spending a lot more time and money for the same results. If they do, then would fixing the qualification issue be less expensive than interviewing et al.? Again, assuming that you have a choice of similar outcomes at different price points.
