What did the manager mean by looking at the other candidates?

Ok I applied for a job at Dave & busters after I went to an open interview there, sense the manager interviewing me was telling me to fill out an application, then said something about moving forward to other candidates finally for some unexpected reason I received an email saying I am scheduled for an on-site interview but don’t know why.

They probably need people to start ASAP so they changed their mind.

I went to an open interview then the manager said make sure to apply, and I did after that I was scheduled for an on-site interview after that the manager said he was going to look at other applicants, then magically I was scheduled for orientation

Can you elaborate a little more please. Did they ask you to interview and then say they are looking at other candidates? Or did they say they are looking for other candidates and then ask you to interview.
