Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. While the petitioner's work was described in witness letters, the record contained minimal objective evidence, such as a significant number of citations, to demonstrate that her past achievements had a significant influence on the field or that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than other qualified researchers.
