Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an Italian market and restaurant, failed to establish that the proffered 'operations manager' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the petitioner did not demonstrate that the duties of the position required the theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge, or that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is the minimum requirement for entry into the occupation.
