Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'marketing and content creation analyst' qualifies as a specialty occupation. Citing the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook, the AAO found that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is not the normal minimum requirement for graphic designer positions. The Handbook indicates that individuals with degrees in other fields may enter the occupation with technical training, which does not necessarily equate to a specialized bachelor's degree.
