Thanks for the insight. Apart from remediation, are there other ways to get in? Would internal movement within the firm be another option as well? I get that experience is impt in compliance, but would internal transfers be considered as well?

In global organizations, internal transfers are generally preferred, to encourage mobility, which HR is always marketing. However, it also depends on the role that you applied versus the role that you are doing.
If you are doing internal audit, and applying for a compliance/AML role, your chances will be very high. If you are doing technology and applying for a compliance/AML role, your chances are lesser (unless you are doing compliance technology). It also depends on the business you are in, and which business you are applying for. If you are with consumer business and you are trying for a compliance/AML role in private bank, you shouldn't be surprised if you are not shortlisted at all.
If you are in the same business for the role that you want to apply (i.e. Private bank Ops applying to be Private bank Compliance/AML), I would always recommend for you to speak to your direct supervisor first. If your direct supervisor can put in a few good words on your behalf to the Compliance/AML hiring manager, it helps. Where possible, you should also explore possibility to double-hat (i.e. continue your existing role and take on the Compliance/AML work) as well. This exhibit a positive work attitude (to both supervisors and trust me, this will go a long way in your career path) as well as relieve the stress on both supervisors almost immediately. Your direct supervisor can have more time to find your replacement, hence, more likely to give you a winning recommendation. The hiring supervisor will also be more keen to go for you, as he/she can get someone (even if its 50%) immediately.
