We would dedicate Friday afternoon to working on personal projects, which worked well since not alot of regular work is ever completed on Friday afternoon. We then had quarterly presentations of the personal projects, which provided the opportunity to see the things people where working on.
If you pay well you will get good computer science people. The fact of the matter is that anyone can write code. The individuals that can write good code that is readible by other people, is a much less common skill. All the good computer science people always go to the highest bidder after graduation(it seems sad, but its the truth).
