I am applying for a job in management, but have no management experience. I know that I’m qualified for the job, but not sure how to convey that on the application and resume.

If you have the background knowledge to excel at this position, then your hardest task is going to be showing that you are a leader. If you have no management experience, this can be tough, but having supervisory experience is a plus. Also, if you have ever shown leadership in any other organization, such as volunteer work, a sports team from college, or something else, this will help. Employers look for emotional intelligence in their managers, and demonstrating that yours is above normal will also help, even if you have never had a chance to lead in a professional capacity.
