Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered 'account manager' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The director found the position analogous to a marketing manager, which does not consistently require a degree in a specific specialty. The petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence that a bachelor's degree in a specific field is the industry standard, is normally required by the petitioner, or is necessitated by the complexity of the job duties.
