SOC 3556 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 48% sure that is the right code. Apple is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
This could also be SOC 1132 (Marketing, sales and advertising directors) or SOC 3552 (Business sales executives). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
