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 in an area of merit, the evidence, primarily letters from academics praising her student research, was insufficient to demonstrate her work's impact in her current industrial role. A key witness from a client company discussed her past academic work rather than specific contributions to their company, failing to prove her work served the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a U.S. worker.
