If you got the call for the interview you have the same chance as everyone else there. 121 flying is less about your stick and rudder skills and more about your decision making and CRM skills.

Do some interview prep asap, it pays dividends. I cannot reiterate that enough.

The Airbus will be a lot for you to learn if you haven't flown a jet with that much automation but it's designed to be pilot friendly as long as you put in the legwork to understand what you're telling it to do.
