Decision Summary
The director initially denied the petition, concluding the proposed market research analyst position did not qualify as a specialty occupation. The AAO sustained the appeal, finding that although a bachelor's degree is not always the minimum requirement for the occupation, the specific duties for this petitioner were so specialized and complex that the knowledge required is usually associated with a bachelor's degree, thus meeting the criteria.
