If that's the question they want me to answer, then that's the question they should ask. "Why should I hire you" is a power play, reframing the interview as a test I should be trying to pass in order to meet their approval, instead of a mutual exploration of potential compatibility. I sure hope my attitude about that kind of power imbalance disqualifies me, because egalitarianism is one of my fundamental values, and I don't want to work with people who would see it as a problem.
