Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of market research analyst qualified as a specialty occupation. The AAO determined that none of the four regulatory criteria were met, specifically noting that while the Occupational Outlook Handbook suggests a bachelor's degree is required, it does not specify a degree in a particular specialty, which is necessary to meet the standard.
Criteria Discussed
