Couldn’t you just ask „what are you curious to learn?“ directly, instead of beating around the bush with awkward questions like „what would you rate yourself?“ that people have to „game“? It’s just another way of asking „what’s your biggest weakness?“ with the obligatory „my perfectionism“ response. I just skip the fluff and communicate openly.
