When I left QR I applied to EK and they invited me to an AD. So many people told me that they would send me away when they realised I hadn't waited 12 months that I phoned EK HR and right enough I was told they had made a mistake inviting me to the AD and that I would have to wait for 12 months before I could apply. If you have any doubts though then phone them and ask but as far as I know the rule still applies and it definitely applies both ways (although I doubt if QR have had to enforce it very often!!!!) My friend went to an EK OD and she had only been out of QR for about two months at the time and she went right through to FI then they contacted her and said that she should not have been at the Open Day because she hadn't waited for 12 months ... so what's that about?? Letting her get through the stages and then rejecting her??? In all my years with QR I never met one single person who had gone from EK to QR...... were they mad????? LOL !!!!
