My tip is to also match what is in the person specification. If you don't meet one of the requirements, eg a qualification, say how you meet the equivalent via work / personal life. I was lucky enough to land a NHS post recently. In the person spec, a recognised management qualification was an essential requirement, I do not have one. I did however possess a basic teaching qualification (PTTLS.) I planned and delivered basic IT courses in the local community centre. Planning, people skills, behaviour management, assessing, reporting all equal management skills.
