If you were to choose 10 questions to evaluate the competency of a DBA what would they be given that the result would be their competence would be rated as of the following:  

• TERRIBLE (I would not let them within 100 miles of a database)
• FAIR (I'd show them some basic admin, but do it myself, they've a lot to learn yet)
• GOOD (I'd let them do some basic admin stuff by themselves but monitor their performance regularly)
• VERY GOOD (I'd let them handle practically all admin type work and mentor them as required)
• EXCELLENT (Hell, they could teach me a trick or too!)
