Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'senior data analyst' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The provided job duties were found to be too broad, vague, and generic, which prevented the AAO from determining whether the role required the theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge and a bachelor's degree in a specific field.
Criteria Discussed
Specialty Occupation Definition Normal Minimum Educational Requirement (Criterion 1) Industry Standard Requirement Or Position Complexity (Criterion 2) Employer'S Normal Hiring Requirement (Criterion 3) Nature Of The Specific Duties (Criterion 4)
