• Carlos III University has taken action in the case of Sandra León, a former government official who obtained a position as a full professor without the required endorsement from Aneca.
• The cancellation of León's position ends the anomaly of her access to the position in 2021, for which she did not present the required accreditation.
• León's explanations, who claimed unawareness of the need to formalise this requirement, have been contradicted by the appearance of a document.
• León can now apply for another position, after obtaining Aneca's approval.
• A control failure on behalf of both the department and the evaluation committee is pointed out, indicating the need to assess responsibilities at all levels.

Conclusion: This case underscores the importance of transparency, equality, and merit in hiring processes at public institutions and highlights the need for strict oversight and controls to avoid irregularities.
