H-1B Dismissed โ Operations Management (2022): did not establish the proffered position of 'operations
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the proffered position of 'operations management associate' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner did not describe the position's duties with sufficient detail to establish that they require a specialized bachelor's degree. Additionally, the duties described seemed more aligned with a general management role rather than the designated 'Operations Research Analyst' category, further undermining the claim of a specialty occupation.
