Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove that the proffered position of production manager qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that the role's duties were a mix of a jeweler and a general manager, neither of which normally requires a bachelor's degree in a specific field for entry, according to the Occupational Outlook Handbook.
