Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that an exemption from the job offer requirement would be in the national interest of the United States. While the director acknowledged the petitioner qualifies as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, the AAO affirmed that the petitioner's record did not meet the high standard required for a national interest waiver, particularly in demonstrating that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
