H-1B Dismissed — Marketing (2020): did not establish the proffered position of 'marketing

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'marketing analyst' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the Occupational Outlook Handbook indicates that degrees in a wide variety of disparate fields are acceptable for the role, suggesting a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is not a normal minimum entry requirement. Additionally, the petitioner did not submit a certified Labor Condition Application (LCA) that corresponded to the petition.
