Primarily market capture math (target population * % of market captured * price)

So finding the mental math tricks that work best for you.

Nothing more complex than multiplication/addition. There will be math aspects though and it is something where we tend to grade harshly if you fumble through the math.

Thanks. Could you share whether the practice case available online is reflective of difficulty of math etc?

I recommended a candidate for hire to a manager that reports directly to me. This person is a perfect match, but wanted the manager to obviously recommend. It has to be a fit. The manager just told me my recommendation is not her top pick. I feel frustrated because as much as we talk about the position, I wonder if we are mot aligned on criteria. What do I do? Do I push more for the person I want or will I cause an issue with the hiring manager? How do I get her to see this person’s value?
