After the initial structure, what tips do you guys have to be structured in other manners - in terms of communicating when doing math or communicating insights or brainstorming?

What kind of resources help to be structured in the rest of the case?

Always try to think sequentially and logically; dont forget to take your interviewer through your thought logic -> if not structured, or if you move too fast without explaining, you will come across porly and lose points. Being hypothesis driven obviously helps

In the math part, explain your math the first time at least, to level set on approach amd formula

In the brain storming, ask for a minute to think of a framework within which to include tour creative ideas
