This is the typical 'tell me why you are the best candidate' question that can be faced in many interviews. To nail this question, you need to have done your homework on the organization to find out the key skills and abilities they are seeking out of their next Staffing Manager. If possible, try to identify a current recruiting gap that they may be facing and tell them how you will fix that gap. It doesn't hurt to think outside of the box in finding a unique quality that you can bring to this team that sets you apart from your competition for the job.

"During my research of the company and my previous interviews, I discovered you are having a hard time filling your engineering roles. I am best suited for this position because I have extensive experience filling engineering roles and have done so by really leaving no stone unturned in a recruitment process. I've built relationships with program directors from the top engineering schools in the country and have worked with engineering staff on building their networks with a focus on recruitment. In addition, I feel I am best suited for this role because my personal values align with the values of this organization."
