Does it mean It became clear that the job beyond his limited abilities?
But why do they say "rather"
2. It was years off schedule.
Does it mean it wasn't planned?
3. To examine the way which something has developed in?
Is it correct?

Yes, in time, the job was seen to be too much for him to handle.
The "rather" is an unneeded adjective. It is simply for emphasis (or sarcasm).

Thank you so much for your help.
But I just want to make sure about something.
1."The job turned to be..."
As far as I understood this sentence is that he has limited abilities because of his job.
Is that correct?
2."It was years off schedule" means that something wasn't planned .
Am I right?

Does "beyond" in the sentence I wrote mean "away from"?
Because "beyond" has a lot of meanings, so I don't know what does it mean in the sentence I wrote!
