Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner did not provide a consistent or probative description of the job duties and failed to prove it had secured actual work for the beneficiary at the time of filing. Additionally, the required educational background was overly broad, initially including general degrees like business administration, which does not demonstrate the need for a specific body of highly specialized knowledge.
