A lot of it comes down to how you sell yourself.

One of the things I always do in an interview is ask - Is there anything you are looking for with this job that you don't feel like you see in my background? Makes them spell it out that, well we wanted someone with business background (or whatever) and gives you an opportunity to explain how you in fact do have what they are looking for (or recognize that you don't and the job is not the right fit for you) or sometimes it makes them say, no you've got everything we're looking for (which is a good thought for them to finish an interview).
