Live Interview Structure Presentation

How deep should we go during initial structure presentation? 2 layers? 3 layers? What I meant as initial structure presentation was when we 'suggested' a structure to analyze the problem before mentioning which main driver to focus on first.

hey there :)

In the initial structure presentation, 2 layers are usually ideal and sometimes a light 3 layer if it is very intuitive and adds clarity. The key is to show a clear, MECE top level and demonstrate that you already know what sits underneath without overloading the interviewer too early. You can always deepen the structure once you align on which main driver to focus on first, and that is often even appreciated more than presenting everything upfront. Happy to discuss examples if helpful, feel free to reach out.

best,
