Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'management data analyst' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner's stated minimum requirement of a bachelor's degree in business administration was found to be too general and not a degree in a 'specific specialty', which is a core requirement of the H-1B classification.
