It is not really up to your DOM, if you want to be a full time staff with all the associated benefits then you should at least apply and see what happens.

Good question about how you found out about the vacancy. I doubt our vacancies is open to external candidates - should they all be open?

^^^^^ Why do these searches NEVER work for me??

I put in my postcode, put a distance of 75 miles and leave the other options as ''show all'' yet nothing happens???!!! Even though the scrolling text on the left of the page is showing positions that fall within the parameters I've just put in?

You need to put in an official transfer request. Then get your rep involved, if he has no luck ask him to get the area rep as the area rep will be able to arrange it with the sector manager. That is if you are a union member.
