HELP! I'm having a brain freeze and can't think how to word this letter. I need to create a "thanks, but no thanks" letter to send to people that we are not interested in persuing for an opening we have at work...

I'm usually really good at writing letters, but can't think of anything today (maybe the three days with a combined 10 hours of sleep is finally catching up with me!)
 
I want to thank you for applying with Company Name. After careful consideration, I have decided to offer the position to another candidate.
 
Thank you for your time on Tuesday. I appreiciate the opportunity to sit and meet with you. At this time, we are unable to offer you a position with our company. We wish you the best in your future endeavors.

How about something like that??

This is for people that we don't even want to consider... still haven't found the right person, but they don't have a skill set even remotely close to what is needed!
 
After reviewing your application we have decided to interview others for the position you have applied for. Thank you for your interest in our company.

You aren't lying, because you are going to interview others, just not them. :)
 
Thank you for you interest in the company and the position but at this time, we have gone in another direction. Good luck with your in your job search. Something like that?
