Practical assessment of a new web developer
Our work place is currently looking for a new web developer. Can anyone provide any information/useful links on how to conduct a practical assessment to guage the actual skills of a web developer during a job interview?
The core skills required of the web developer is HTML, CSS, Dreamweaver and JavaScript. Secondary skills required are at least basic graphic design/desktop publishing in Photoshop/Fireworks, Adobe Acrobat and some fundamental knowledge of databases.
Of course a good knowlege of the relevant web standards, accessibility guidelines, etc is important as well.

I am just making this up as I go:
1. Ask for a portfolio!
2. Ask what programs, if any, they have used for development of websites. This give little information on their skill but lets them open up on the details of their developing process. They might use 3 different programs just to get a site on its feet. You never know =)
