If you want to stick to soloing modally over it, I would try G dorian over the Gm7. It's mixolydian with a flat 3. You could also mix in the F and Bb blues scale. It will sound cool weaving inbetween those and mixolydian.
If you wanna win some serious jazz brownie points, though, you could treat the 7 chords like they are the 5 in a 2-5-1 and solo using the relative dorian mode, which I realize is all the same notes as mixolydian, just in a different order. To emphasize the dorian, use a C minor arpeggio over the F7 and a F minor arpeggio over the Bb7.
Might be confusing, I'll try to answer questions about that if you have any. Either way, good luck with the audition and post back when you know how you did
