Confused... Job interview at Primark

I had applied for about 15 open positions at various Primarks and got invited to attend an interview which I had yesterday. The woman said that she would also be interviewing people today and that if I was successful, I would go to an induction on the 2nd. However I got an email saying:
Hi [name],

Thank you again for your interest in Primark and good luck with your job search,

Does this look like a rejection from my interview or one from the other jobs at Primark that I applied for? The status of my application for the one I was interviewed for is still 'at interview process' and not 'unsuccessful'. Does this mean I haven't been rejected yet?

OP, it DOES sound like it's the generic email that gets sent out after the first stage. So don't worry.

It looks as if you have either (a) received your interview decision response by email and the status hasn't yet been updated on the website or (b) received a straight rejection for another role. Normally, a position reference will be quoted. If it hasn't, you should ask.

When I got rejected from an interview I had at Primark I got that same email, the application status takes a while to change...but that can also be about other positions you've applied so I don't know :X
