Hi community,

I’m interviewing for a solution consultant role that requires account management & client-service experiences. I don’t have any of those. How can I prepare for these interview questions

This is easy. Don't front and interview for a job you're admittedly not qualified for? Don't waste their time and don't put yourself through hell. You're asking 'community' to help you lie.

Thanks for the reply! I think I need to add more details. Account management is one of the qualities that was required, and I can do other things. I already progressed through the first two rounds of interviews, and this is the last in-person one. I didn’t lie about anything before, I told them honestly that I don’t have any client-facing experiences. But for this last round, I’m aware that there will be a bar raiser and this will be one of their focuses.

It’s a 4 year degree and under this I have my High School equivalent with the years I attended there. The education wasn’t mentioned in the interviews. Continued below.
