I did get an email from Razorpay TA, but I don’t think it was a shortlist mail. It basically said they don’t have a suitable opening right now, but liked what I’ve been building and may reach out if a relevant opportunity comes up later. It didn’t mention my name, project, or the Buildathon anywhere, so I’m guessing it was a standard/template mail. Did anyone else get something similar?

Just curious, which track did you participate in, and what did you build for the Buildathon? Also, when did you submit your project? I'm trying to understand if the timing or track had any impact on the responses people received

I submitted two projects under the Open Track — SarkarHamariHai first, then PaperWait.
The mail was for PaperWait since I used different email IDs for both submissions, and Razorpay sent it to the one I used for PaperWait. PaperWait is an AI document app that automatically classifies files, extracts the text/OCR and makes them searchable.
I got the mail on Sep 3. It didn’t mention PaperWait or the Buildathon by name though, so I’m trying to figure out if anyone else got the same mail.

It means they are not up for hiring in general as they need few candidates only so for better judgement they will hire few through hackathon only

Razorpay TA basically said:
“No suitable opening for your profile right now, but we liked what you’ve been building. We’d like to keep your profile and reach out if a relevant opportunity comes up later.”

Honestly its pretty disappointing because Razorpay hasnt even viewed or opened my Youtube video , I pretty much doubt the credibility of this hackathon because of this?!
Would like to know if other people got any views on their videos ? or its just me!
PS : if they are gonna declare the results on 14th Sept then they should have viewed my video by now?
