Hi Darshan,
I don't think these are all much stupid questions.
Where do you see yourself in five years?
In the present scenario noone work in the same company for 5 years,most probably. But as per my knowledge, this question intention is to know the candidate's career plan, extent of clarity in thoughts, the extent of their practical thinking etc.
I never came across 2nd question to till date.
What are your weaknesses?
For any responsible position, the candidate should have ability to know his/her weaknesses and to take constructive measures to overcome it. I think presenting own weaknesses in a good manner also one of the great skills.
What in particular interested you about our company?
Generally this question don't have much importance if the candidate had relevant exp/relevant educational background.
What would your past managers say about you?
Yes, its no at all an interview question. Reference check will give sound answer for this question, not the candidate.
