People who are struggling to make ends meet would go to great lengths to land a job–including falsely representing themselves to impress a potential employer.

TikToker @firelordnick posed as a conservative Christian for an online job interview and subsequently sparked mixed reactions based on his deceptive tactic.


In the since made private or deleted viral video, he wrote in the caption:

"Gotta chase the bag."

Meaning he endeavored to hustle hard for the money–even if it meant faking his faith.

"I would love to ask supporters to donate to the conservative non-profit Christian Organizations."
