Is it permissible to lie in order to obtain and maintain a job ?

Fatawa Question

Under exceptional circumstances, I understand one can lie. If someone has not had a job for a long time and desperately esquires an income, can they lie in order to secure a job ? What if they have witnessed others lie for the job and get it ?
