What to do when you’re too good at your job?

There became a work at home position that opened up at my job. I applied for it and let one of my bosses know. One of them told me that I’m basically too good in my position now and my chances of getting that opened position are slim. They are interviewing about 4 other candidates that would be new hires. One candidate has more experience that I do. They also told me a coworker who has a similar position that I do and started 6 months after me applied as well. I’ve already decided if they give them the job I’m quitting. Is there any advise on what to do/say when I get interviewed that will help my chances of getting this other job? Idk I just feel so defeated.
