I think it depends on how you're filtering the people who get to your interviews. If it's purely based on a resume screen, you can get a lot of people who can't code.
Personally, my first-line screen is a short answer (3-5 sentences) to a programming-related question. [1] For me, about 90% of applicants who pass that can also code. I like that better than a resume screen, as plenty of people who haven't officially been programmers are decent coders.
