There isn't one thing you can say in an interview to secure the role. There are so many factors that are taken in to consideration it would be foolish to think you can win someone over with a single sentence in my opinion. You could be the ideal candidate, 100% able to demonstrate your competency in a role, have answered all the questions perfectly, but then another candidate has a lower salary expectation than you and they are given the role, even though they performed worse in the interview. It shouldn't be this way, especially if an organisation wants to hire smartly and bring the best talent to their business, but unfortunately it is at times.

I don’t think that there is something like that but “PASSION” towards the job can make difference if it is communicated in a proper way.

Well for it is not a particular step or sentence that guarantees you the job , anyone who is going to make a decision to hire you or not to hire you will take a holistic view rather than trying to reduce the whole experience into a sentence or couple of words.For me there are certain competencies that are extremely critical to be evaluated such as adaptability and flexibility , attitude towards change , respect for diversity and leadership ability.

لا يوجد جملة واحدة يمكنها ضمان حصولك على الوظيفة خلال مقابلة العمل. فالحصول على الوظيفة يعتمد على مجموعة من العوامل، بما في ذلك الخبرات والمهارات والشخصية والتوافق مع فريق العمل والشركة.

There is no one sentence that can guarantee i will get the job during an interview, as the decision to hire a candidate is based on multiple factors including experience, skills, cultural fit, and other qualifications.

However, it's important to focus on highlighting my skills and experience, showing enthusiasm and interest in the company and the position, and providing specific examples of my accomplishments and contributions in previous roles. By doing so, I can make a positive impression on the interviewer and increase my chances of being selected for the job

I wish horses could fly but unfortunately they do not and in the same breath - there is no sentence to guarantee a job.

To be brutally honest but please do not take offence to this just the fact that you think a sentence can get you a job - will get your disqualified.

I am being realistic.
