need unbiased advice

I work for a small company that has hired a programmer (asp) about whom I have concerns

In your opinion, one a scale of 1-10, what programming skill level would be required to know the following:

1. How use a path to an include file (using anexisting example from a file on the same level of the site)
2. How to recognize an include file and find it’s location
3. Whether html can be used to back-end a form
4. How to back-end a simple text-input form (using an existing example)

thankyou!
