I did that once. I asked the interviewer what he thought was his company's biggest weakness. He nervously smiled and said that his company has no weaknesses. Needless to say, I didn't get the job. Back then, I used to think that the 'What is your biggest weakness' question was pretty dumb too, but I don't anymore. I now understand that I'm not great at every aspect of my job, nobody is. The point is that I know what my weaknesses are and that I want to improve on them. Nowadays, if I get that question in an interview I answer it honestly and make sure that the interviewer knows that I would love to have the opportunity to improve on my weaknesses while I work for his company.
