I disagree. The problem is that the skills to get hired are very different than the skills to do the job. I'm reminded of a thing I read about not too long ago--an organization trying to help those who had stumbled in life to get hired. They had a guy who seemed qualified but nobody would hire him. They tried asking a company to give him a practical test before an interview--then didn't hear back about the interview. A followup call revealed they had hired him on the spot based on the practical test.
