After having been stung by monthly virus cleanups at $75 an hour due to an otherwise competent office manager my parents have realized they need to be aware of their employee's computer skills beyond being able to type a letter in word (currently the closest thing they have to a test on computer ability). The problem is, as a small business, there is no IT expert who would be able to recognize a users competency in this area easily. I'm wondering if anyone has seen a good way to test these skills (such as a online test, a set of questions, etc.) that can easily and quickly give them a good idea of an interviewees computer competency during an interview. I have already pointed them to Sonic Wall's Spam and Phishing test (http://www.sonicwall.com/phishing/index.html), however this definitely doesn't cover all of the necessary issues facing computer users."
