This question is less about the other candidate, about whom you know nothing. Instead, this question concerns what makes you uniquely qualified for them. Every other candidate has put their best resume together and has likely put time into researching the company and their culture. But not all candidates have put equal time into doing their homework on themselves, identifying how they are a unique match for the ideal candidate they are on the hunt for. And none of them are better qualified to speak about you as a topic of interest. So now is the time to showcase with confidence why they should specifically hire you.

"Well, on your career page, you detail that you are looking for winners with strong analytical skills, performers, and even jugglers. That popped out at me right away because my coworkers often referred to our office as the circus, and they called me the juggler. I am always the one who has so many projects going on, always trying to overachieve, that they all said any of them would have lost count of the balls and dropped some of them. Yet I can always keep them all n the air, prioritize effectively, and come in way ahead of every deadline."
