Most of the roles that I am interviewing for are client partner or BD (lots of demand). But, I am not passing the interviews.

Any suggestions on how to answer the questions would be appreciated (eg annual revenue yield, profit target margin, go-to-market strategy, deal lead generation).

Most of these companies have proprietary products and offer professional services.

If you don’t know how to answer questions about your annual revenue yield, target profit margins, GTM strategy, and lead gen then you’re probably not qualified for client partner or BD roles. Those are baseline knowledge areas
