Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary possesses specialized knowledge or that he has been employed in a position involving specialized knowledge for the required one year within the three years preceding the petition's filing. Evidence, including the beneficiary's resume, suggested he was a trainee until 2005, the year the petition was filed, which undermined the claim of having one year of experience in a specialized knowledge capacity.
