Is it inappropriate to reach out to the MD you interviewed with if you’re still waiting for a written offer and recruiter hasn’t responded to your emails.

Depends what you are reaching out for. To thank them for their time, remind them of connect points from the interview or potentially an action or follow up you took absolutely ok. Don’t expect a reply but it will get read and likely will be remembered positively.

If to jump the gun on the recruitment process or cut the recruiter out of the way or in anyway imply that the recruiter isn’t doing their job that’ll be a bold move cotton.

I just realized I presumptively spoke about Accenture. I’m not sure what firm you’re interviewing for

No it is not an inappropriate. That is called a follow up email.

My final round with Deloitte for UK Tech Consulting Manager position soon. Strangely it’s not a PMD round as it usually is for other Big4/tech consulting firms.

What is a typical salary to expect? I was asked in screening but kept it vague (e.g can discuss later bla bla). I was hoping 75-80 (ridiculous?)

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.
