Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. The AAO determined that the petitioner's memberships in professional associations were based on elections or expressions of interest rather than outstanding achievements judged by experts. Additionally, the petitioner's work evaluating executive candidates was considered a normal job duty, not participation as a judge of the work of others in the field.
