This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
- "Questions asking for advice on what to do are not practical answerable questions (e.g. "what job should I take?", or "what skills should I learn?"). Questions should get answers explaining why and how to make a decision, not advice on what to do. For more information, click here." – Masked Man, Kent A., paparazzo, Jane S

You should give them a good argument for why they should hire you. We can't answer that, because we don't know why anyone should hire you ;)

Its a generic, vague question designed to make you come up with a sensible answer - outlandish answers are warning triggers, as are limp answers.

In my experience, that sort of question is automatically answered by an effective interview process. If that cannot be figured out, its a flaw in the process.

An effective interview process includes open questions @SuperPomodoro. This one might not get the best out of every candidate or be appropriate for every position, but the manner of answering does demonstrate something useful to the interviewer.

I always say "I'll make you look good." Then elaborate, if asked but that's my personal style.

This is a good opportunity to show that you have paid attention so far. By that time you should be familiar with the company, the job and the requirements. Rattle through them one by one and check off where you are a good fit. Example
"You are looking for an embedded C++ ninja and during my time at
company XXX I wrote a lot of high performance real time code in C++.
I'm happy to go through some benchmarks if you are interested."
Your answers should be specific to the job the company and yourself. Anything generic like "I'm a hard worker" or "I synergetically leverage key stakeholders" is useless.
It's also an opportunity to bring up any strengths that hasn't come up yet.
"I also have a lot of experience in managing large data bases, which
may be helpful for your ABC project"

This is an open question, there is no "correct" answer.
It's an opportunity to talk about your strengths and also show that you understood what they are looking for by telling them how your strengths fit their requirements.
Where the requirements fit, call it a great match. Where you are behind, call it a learning opportunity for you. If you feel they could profit from your superior knowledge in a field, tell them how they could profit from your knowledge.
If you share common culture, call it a good bonding opportunity. If you don't, call it a perfect chance to diversify the team and bring in new thoughts and fresh ideas.
Whatever you say, say it in a way that makes them think you are the best thing since sliced bread. But stay humble. Don't say it yourself, let them figure out that you are.
