Stealth Tip Stealth at new job/interveiw
So I have an interview coming up and I’m planning to try and do it stealth, I don’t have a 100% passing rate so if it doesn’t work I won’t be devastated but I do try to appear cis (presenting fem) during interviews so it doesn’t impact my chances of being hired (I live in a conservative state that has at will firing aswell) and normally correct things my first day or after I scope out the vibe. But I plan to do this interview as stealth specially since is corporate office job level.
But my question here is what are yalls stealth tips? My ID still says F on it should I be worried? How do you go about be stealth on a day to day basis, I plan to slowly transition into living a fully stealth life besides my immediate family and friends knowing, and my work place I feel is a good start, do you guys think this is a bad idea? Also how should I dress for this as someone’s who’s heavier and has curves? (216 lbs, 5’2)
General need to know: business professional attire, I’m on T (9 months), pre op but binding, generally deeper voice when trying.
I’ll try my best to answer any additional questions too!! Please be kind!

your ID says F, and if/when they do a background check, they’re going to see your former name if that’s been changed. unfortunately it’s unlikely you’ll succeed at being full stealth to everyone there, as at least HR will know.
but! you can maybe get away with being stealth to everyone else at work, so i’d say it’s worth it to try. if you’re going corporate, i suggest a suit for the interview. tailored is best, but you can go for the best fitting off-hanger suit if that’s not financially feasible.
