Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the 'junior designer' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO concluded that the petitioner's arguments were conclusory and did not provide sufficient evidence to meet the burden of proof under any of the four regulatory criteria. The decision also noted that even if a bachelor's degree is common for interior designers, the petitioner did not show that a degree in a *specific* specialty is required.
