The petitioner described the role as having supervisory and leadership functions, yet also claimed the beneficiary would be constantly supervised and would not act independently. These contradictions, along with work samples suggesting autonomy, precluded a determination that the position qualified as a specialty occupation requiring a bachelor's degree in a specific field.
