Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove that the proffered position of Purchasing Director qualifies as a specialty occupation. Citing the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook, the AAO found that while a bachelor's degree is sometimes preferred for purchasing manager roles, it is not a standard minimum requirement for entry into the occupation, as educational requirements vary and other career paths exist.
