Community Answers
The interviewer wants to know why they should pick you over the other candidates for this position. If there is anything that you don't think will be brought on during the interview now is a good time to mention it. Is there an interesting certification that would be beneficial for them to know about or an experience that's not on your resume- tell them about it.
Talk about what you will bring to the program that you believe other people won't. Talk yourself up for this question, but remember not to go into a fifteen minute conversation. The interviewer wants to know what makes you different and why you'll be an asset to their program.
