Keep it simple!

Moving from academics to industry can be difficult. My experience: several of my applications were rejected even though I considered me as a perfect match. I analyzed my resume and suspected, there was too much academical stuff in it. I deleted most of my research work from the resume and kept only "down-to-earth-stuff". Same strategy in the interviews. And voila, within no time got a bunch of offers for really great industry jobs.
