This seems to be a common question. If you can handle it well, then th epossibility for you to be hired will be higher. At first, you can tell them your virtues such as you are a diligent person and you will work hard for the company. And then you can bring some profits for the company etc. I love China

I think you should give out the qualities you have that would be beneficial to the company hiring you. I think in an interview, you should anticipate all possible questions that they may ask of you so you can prepare the answers beforehand. Doing so, would make you feel confident about your answers when they finally would ask them.
