The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the proffered position as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the required degree in general fields like business administration or commerce was not specific enough, and the described job duties were too generic and closely mirrored the O*NET summary without demonstrating sufficient complexity.
