"Is It Permissible To Pay Money In Order To Get A Government Job?"

Is it permissible to pay money in order to get a government job, especially if jobs cannot usually be found except by this method?
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: As for the bribe which will help a man to attain his rights, such as if he cannot attain his rights except by giving this money, this is haraam for the one who takes it but it is not haraam for the giver, because the giver is only giving it in order to attain his rights, but the taker who accepts this bribe is the sinner, because he is taking what he is not entitled to.

And Allaah knows best
