I received the following email from Starbucks:

Nope. Definitely. They just don't say it to you directly but they are already empasizing that you are not qualified. They are just being polite thats why they send you this kind of letter. If you can see they already offering/encouraging you to move on and look for another job. I suggest look for other job now, instead of depending or hoping to starbucks.

I think that sounds a poor way for the company to explain things to you. In the past I went to an interview and got a letter saying I had been successful but they didn't have a job available. I didn't end up working for them but they kept my CV on file.
I imagine star Bucks have interviews some people but haven't found the right person yet. They sound like they haven't decided yet who they will have for the manager's job. You have a 20% chance of being picked for this job I guess. Good luck.
