Haha! Depends on the job.

Actually I would find it easier to recognise you as faceblindness means that some people blend in where I don't expect to see them. Something unusual such as unusual hair colour will be something my mind can remember so I would not have to rely on reading faces.

Regarding job positions. What sort of job are you considering?

It could, depending on the field and the demand for people in that field.

Maybe working in a grocery store or Wal Mart. I'm on waitlist for an employment program for people with disabilities.
