Yes, it’s very common. Sometimes they say it’s impostor syndrome but to me fear of success is constantly trying to self sabotage as a result. Let me ask you, why are you counting experience in years? How about lessons learned, risks taken, decisions made?
Consulting is full of imposter syndrome
They are putting you forward for a reason. I also was in the same boat as you not long ago (with 7 years experience) and the imposter syndrome definitely kicked in. Took the role anyway and I’m still here getting praise from senior leadership. So don’t worry and don’t let yourself think you don’t have what it takes. “Believe in yourself” may be a cliché but it’s applicable here.
That’s impressive! Which firm is it? ..And Congratulations, you must be doing something right :-)
