We have a simple system we use to determine the value of many things. Money. Whichever applicants are bringing in the highest salary should be picked. It’s kind of crazy that a genius with specialized skills is in the same process as the warm bodies the outsourcing firms are dumping in there.
Salaries should be paid a year in advance to the government, who then passes it to the workers, to ensure the high salary is real. Then, so the workers aren’t locked, slavelike, into a particular company, they should have the option to stay in the country for at least the amount of time they were working, looking for a new job. Starting with a year minimum. And their visa stays with them, not the company, subject to minimum salary requirements.
