Failing to seek a job after completion of her electrical engineering, 22-year-old Kiran committed suicide in frustration at her residence on Friday night. She wrote her suicide note on her left palm in which she blamed none but her failure to find a job as a reason to end her life.
Initial investigation by police revealed Kiran had gone to Noida for an interview on Friday. She returned late evening and was looking upset.
After having her meal with family she went to sleep with her mother. Next morning when the family woke up, they found her body hanging with the grill of stairs.
Kiran has two sisters and a brother while her father is an employee in the telephone department. After doing her B.Tech in electrical Kiran was trying her luck for a job and went through many interviews with no success.
This repeated failure developed a sense of insecurity and frustration in the young girl who ultimately took a drastic decision to end her life. Like her, many IT graduates are passing through a similar phase.
IT professionals and students feel that ongoing economic slump across the world has forced most of companies to put campus selections on hold. "Though delay in joining was a normal practice in recent times its percentage has increased due to the economic crisis," observed Abhinav, secretary of IIMT groups of colleges, adding that the crisis definitely would have an impact on availability of jobs.
A senior IT professional Manoj Mishra says that 25% IT companies have put campus selections on hold to meet out the challenges of economic slump. "Companies are deferring joining of new students and in some cases they have applied measures like job cuts in order to keep things under control," said Mishra, who looks after the management of a leading IT company in Gurgaon.
Meanwhile, most of the students who had enjoyed their selections by major IT companies now are waiting for their call. "They selected me and over 40 other students through campus selection last year and we were asked to join by the end of June or July this year.
But, companies have deferred our joining and we were left with no option but to wait for their call or search for some other job," said Anjini Sharma, student of a leading engineering college. It is believed hundreds of students are facing similar problems
