What is the ruling on using a connection for someone who wants to submit an application for a job in a government department?

The questioner : He is asking another question, our Shaykh. Regarding the person here who wants to get a job in a government department, he must submit an application to the Civil Service Bureau... Here, connections may come into play, so he may wrong others, or others may wrong him. Is it permissible for him to use a connection?

The Shaykh : If he is convinced that he will wrong others, it is not permissible, it is not permissible.
