What interviewer isn't going to dig into their concerns anyway? I mean, if you can read the person and they seem like they'd be down for "let's get down to brass tacks" kinda talk, go for it. Maybe it makes you seem like a serious person to certain kinds of people.

It might be a little uncomfortable for someone like me. I'd rather you ask, "what are your favorite qualities in your best employees" and then respond to that.

Maybe it's just my area of work but I can't imagine caring about previous experience, degree, or anything. I mean, the candidate has gotten past the resume screen already so you're just living up to that impression and other candidates at that point.
