Doing pseudocode tests and such would probably weed out the worst offenders. The toughest part is how companies that do not already have internal programming competence select employees and contractors for positions requiring coding expertise. They can't test expertise in something they don't already have expertise in. It seems any sort of third party expertise review system is subject to the same problem of knowing which "expert" to choose.
