You can also structure your hiring process to actually test your prospects' skills. Give them real-world examples to solve, do some roleplay, have them demonstrate their ability instead of just talking about it. We've been doing that for years and it has really helped filter out the talkers. We take people with/without degrees so long as they impress us in the project we give them.
