Confidence is being comfortable in your own skin and expressing yourself without feeling insecure or nervous. It comes when one knows one's strengths as well as faults and accepts them to improve oneself.
Overconfidence is when a person 'believes' that he/she is right every single time and that there's nothing the others 'need' do, but follow him/her happily.
If the interviewer says something like, "If you can do it, there are hundred others who can do it too. Why should we choose you and not them?".
If you say because I can do it better than others, the interviewer might twist your reply to mean that you are over-confident.
What to say in such situations? Maybe you can say "Because I'm special! You will find it during my work and never regret your choice.

Sir/Madam, There is a thin line between confidence and overconfidence. A confident person will always say.
That he can do it. But an overconfident person will say that He Can only do it. A confident person shows humbleness but overconfidence shows arrogance.
