To an extent perhaps unparalleled in any other area of employment based immigration, identification of the national interest requires creativity and most importantly, the ability to consider a range of cross-disciplinary factors which would establish that the alien's professional capabilities, personal interest and overall employment opportunities will benefit US national interest. National interest waiver means waiver of job offer requirement and hence no labor certification is necessary. To qualify for national interest waiver, the individual's work must benefit the US in the national interest. The application process normally takes 4-6 weeks. You are not bound by any employment throughout the course of the National interest application, and can skip the Labor Certification application process.
Labor certification is required for most of the other employment based immigration application.
