Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'business analyst' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the record did not demonstrate that the job duties require a degree in a specific specialty. Citing the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook, the decision noted that while a bachelor's degree is a typical entry-level requirement for management analysts, a degree from a wide variety of fields is suitable, which undermines the H-1B requirement for a degree in a *specific* specialty.
