The offered position requires an experienced candidate who has acquired special skills and knowledge of application analysis, design support and optimization techniques within a narrow and specialized area this is consistent with the Wage Level 3 classification provided by the DOL. The level of responsibility, expected autonomy and the critical role in the design of application architecture of satellite operations justifies the requirement for advanced education and experience or the stipulated equivalent. The employer believes that these hiring requirements or their SVP equivalent are common within the industry for the same or similar positions. The DOLs Bureau of Labor Statistics describes in their Occupational Outlook Handbook that quot;For some positions, employers may prefer that applicants have a masters degree.quot;br br Regarding H.8 As an alternative, a Bachelors degree in a Computer Science, Computer Applications, Software Engineering field combined with five years progressive experience in the position or in the alternative occupation will substitute for the Masters and three years of such experience. Foreign equivalent degrees are acceptable.
