Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered 'market research analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the evidence, including the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook, did not establish that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is a normal minimum requirement for this role, as degrees in various fields are considered acceptable.
Criteria Discussed
