Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proposed 'marketing and commercial manager' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner did not meet any of the regulatory criteria, noting specifically that a bachelor's degree in a specific field is not a normal minimum requirement for entry into marketing manager roles, as a wide range of educational backgrounds are suitable.
Criteria Discussed
Normal Degree Requirement For The Position Degree Requirement Common To The Industry Employer Normally Requires A Degree For The Position Specialized And Complex Nature Of Duties
