There is no objection to seeking assistance in finding a job to secure a livelihood, as this does not fall under the category of begging that is forbidden by Sharia. What is blameworthy is asking people for their money and possessions out of covetousness without need. However, seeking intercession for employment or looking for a job due to need is permissible.
