Letting Them Down Gently After Interview

[spinnymarie]

We're currently interviewing four people (actually five, since two are part-time and fit together) for two spots for our open in August - so we will have to tell at least two people that we can't take them.
How do you word this? I've warned all of them ahead of time that there is a possibility we won't be able to take them, but I still would much rather just take them all instead of saying no to some.
