    Advice on professional interview where I’m underqualifed
    Edit: that spelling mistake in topic is embarrassing

    Dropped my resume to several companies online

    Worked for big 4 audit 1 year, project finance with a renewable energy company for 1 year (most recent)

    Got a call today for financial analyst consulting position looking for someone with 3 to 7 years experience in renewable energy project finance and preferred masters.

    On phone though they sounded interested and I have two interviews scheduled Monday.

    Tips for this situation? Normally not nervous but this time I feel a bit of pressure.

          Personally I think you'd be better off discussing your desire and inquiring about continuing education opportunities

          Many times these companies are not focused on the resume as much as the person. Will they be a low key, long term asset. Tell them you're a team player...they'll mold you into the employee they want if you have the temperament
