A 22 year old engineering student of Jadavpur university commited
suicide in his hostel room after writing an online recuritment test for
Microsoft as a part of the college' placement procedure. This was the second
big placement in the campus, with a prospective salary of Rs 17 lakh, after he
could not clear the final round of placement for Amazon.
The Telegraph reported, that Manish Ranjan belonged
to the Siwan district of Bihar, and was a very good student. His friend had
cleared the Amazon placements. Manish, ironically cleared the entrance exam of
Microsoft, news that came too late for him.
He hung himself from the fan in his
hostel room, but did not leave a suicide note.Though the job scenario and the
pressure of placement could be the trigger but not the main cause for the
suicide.
