Case Interviews
Should I use an issue tree or a framework in a candidate-led case?
For candidate-led cases, is it better to start with an issue tree or a more conceptual framework? I've seen conflicting advice on which interviewers prefer.

Quite frankly you should do the one that you are most comfortable with!
That said, I prefer a framework because you don't really have time to do a proper full issue tree. Additionally, if you do your framework right, it should “sound” like an issue true (each sub-bucket has a purpose/flow). If you're just listing out words/ideas you're doing frameworking wrong!
