At HCi, we act as an agency for writers, and use writers on projects that 
we do for clients.  When a new writer comes to us wanting work we give them 
a simple test, that our experienced project managers then mark, so that we 
have an idea of their abilities as a writer.

We don't just assume that because someone says that they are a TW, they're 
actually any good at TWing.  Believe me, there are some people who come 
along claiming to be a TW, but they couldn't write their way out of a wet 
paper bag.
