I know it will probably fail, thanks in advance anyway

So, I’m from Dominican Republic and my GF is an US citizen and she’s not working for reasons that are not relevant. She doesn’t have an income.

Some time ago a lightbulb went off in my head and I thought to myself: Wouldn’t it be really, really cool to have a remote position as an interpreter/customer service rep (what I’m doing right now) but working “from” the US?

I think I got all bases covered. Skype phone numer, address in the US for her mom where I could potentially receive mail or anything and my GF’s consent to impersonate her.

There’s just a couple of things that worry me. Firstly the interview: It’s 2023, maybe they won’t question why, although I’m biologically female, why I look and speak like a man? Would saying that I’m transitioning work? Work computer? Do all companies require you to use their own equipment? Having the equipment sent to me from US to DR is possible but would take a while to arrive here and IDK if they could notice that I’m abroad so maybe a router would be neccesary I guess.

    Coders have very poor people skills. Just being a normal person the interviewers considered me exceptional and easy to talk to/work with
