It is best to respond to this question using an 'elevator pitch' approach. Start with a brief description of how your skills and experience are in alignment with the job you're interviewing for. Next, provide one or two examples of how you will be able to go above and beyond what is required for the role. Finally, close by letting your interviewer know that you are excited about the opportunity and ready to work hard for their company.

You should hire me because I am an experienced relationship banker with the ability to acquire and retain customers on behalf of your bank. I started as a personal relationship banker and quickly moved up to managing relationships with businesses with average annual revenues of 5M. With over 5 years of experience working in an enterprise banking setting, I am able to successfully identify, pursue, and acquire new clients. I currently have the highest client acquisition rate in my department and I feel confident I can add value to XYZ bank given my experience and strong business network.
