> Your greatest weakness are the character flaws that reliably lead to poor decisions. For example (not based on you in any way) you might be an impatient person. When you're starting out and tackling relatively simple problems, this is no big deal. But as you graduate to working on more ambitious and complex endeavors, it could turn out to be a major limiting factor. But now you've given them an actual serious weakness. I would disqualify an interviewer over this. This is very different from say "my SQL isn't great" which you'll improve over some months.
