H-1B Dismissed — Talent Agency (2020): did not establish the proffered 'talent agent' position
Decision Summary

The petitioner did not establish that a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty is the normal minimum requirement for entry into the occupation, as evidence from the Occupational Outlook Handbook and O*NET was found to be not probative.
