Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a staffing company, failed to establish that the proffered financial analyst position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found the job duties were vague and determined that the petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence from the end-client, where the beneficiary would work, to prove that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is the actual minimum requirement for the role.
