H-1B Dismissed โ Aviation (2024): did not establish the instructor position required a
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove that the instructor position required a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty as a minimum for entry. The petitioner's initial filing and the associated collective bargaining agreement only mentioned a generic bachelor's degree, and later evidence of historically hiring candidates with specialized degrees was deemed a preference rather than a mandatory requirement for the position.
