Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a federal contractor, failed to establish that the proffered position of 'construction and building materials bidding analyst' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director initially denied the petition for this reason, and the AAO affirmed, finding the petitioner did not prove that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is the minimum requirement for the position.
