Step1
When the interviewer asks why they should hire you, it's important to be prepared. It's a good idea to jot down a basic outline of the points you want to cover prior to the interview. Don't memorize it, but make sure you know exactly what to cover.

Step2
Why should they hire you? Think hard about this one. "I'm honest, trustworthy and a hard worker." Yes, these are all great traits that employers look for, but they've heard these reasons a thousand times. Come up with an answer that will make you stand out. "I'm willing to do whatever I need to do to succeed." Doesn't this sound better than "I'm a hard worker."


Step3 :
It's okay to reference past accomplishments when telling the interviewer why they should hire you. "I am detail oriented. In fact, I was given special recognition by my current employer for perfecting project X." With this example, you've referenced a strength, an accomplishment, and special recognition your former employer felt compelled to give you. Try to make sure that your examples tie in to the position you're interviewing for.

Just say "Why Not?" And then tell them about your strengths and what you can do for the company.

Try and prove your attitude to the company's work and in what way you would be useful to the company's growth and to your growth as well.

Attitude makes the chunk of your whole make that a company would like to have you.

If the hiring person does not have a positive atitude, your confidence levels can be transalted in to an arrogance.Please be careful before you answer something which gives a wrong message.
