Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'Licensing and Product Development Coordinator' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner's evidence, including its response to the RFE and industry job postings, indicated that a general bachelor's degree in business administration would be acceptable. This contradicted the petitioner's claim on appeal that a specific degree combining both business and fashion was required, thus failing to prove the position necessitates a degree in a specific specialty.
