You might want to restrict this one to mistakes made on the job.  Otherwise you might put yourself in some awkward situations when you have an interview candidate telling a story about getting plastered and hooking up with a Taiwanese transvestite.  #LFMF

One question I like to ask.... for any kind of job.

What was your biggest screwup/mistake you ever made, and how
did you rectify it?

It tells a lot about a person at many levels.
