The appeal was remanded because the Director incorrectly denied the petition based on the beneficiary's qualifications without first determining if the position itself qualified as a specialty occupation. The AAO found the record lacked a sufficiently detailed description of the job duties and noted that requiring a general business degree is insufficient to establish a specialty occupation, thus sending the case back for proper analysis.
