Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of personnel recruiter qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is not the normal minimum requirement for entry, referencing the Occupational Outlook Handbook which indicates that degrees in various disciplines are acceptable. The petitioner's evidence, including job advertisements, also failed to show that a specific degree is a common requirement within the industry for similar positions.
