H-1B Dismissed — Automotive Export (2006): did not establish the proffered position of contract

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an importer and exporter of used cars, failed to establish that the proffered position of contract administrator qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner provided only generalized job duties and did not demonstrate how the position was so complex or unique as to require a bachelor's degree in a specific field. Submitted evidence, such as job postings from different industries, was not considered probative for establishing an industry-wide standard for a degree requirement.
