DOJ joining CX / DOJ joining KA or DOJ transferring to CX from KA ? Whatever DOJ the vacancy MUST be advertised. Also, there are no mitigating or compassionate circumstances allowed.
Then care to explain how they are london based now? Those slots weren't advertised. The Assc has turned a bind eye to it, there behaviour over recent years is appalling and getting worse.
