Patrick O'Shaughnessy asks Susie if Delavigne is being by the California Animal Rights Organization, because they .
Patrick O'Shaughnessy asks Susie if Delavigne is being inspected and reviewed 1 by the California Animal Rights Organization, because they test their products on animals 2.
1 inspected and reviewed: Mr. O'Shaughnessy asks if Delavigne is currently "under investigation". He is asking if the company is being reviewed and investigated by the California Animal Rights Organization.
1 sued: Mr. O'Shaughnessy does not talk about Delavigne being "sued" by anyone. "To sue somebody" is to bring a legal action against them, or to take them to court. The term is not synonymous with being "under investigation".
1 taken to court: Although being "under investigation" may eventually lead to a court case or to a trial, the expression carries an entirely different meaning than the phrase "under investigation". To "take (someone) to court" is to attack them legally in a court of law.
1 publicly denounced: Mr. O'Shaughnessy does not talk about Delavigne being "publicly denounced", which means "insulted", "condemned" or "denigrated".
2 test their products on animals: Mr. O'Shaughnessy says that Delavigne is "under investigation" for "monkey abuse", which suggests that Delavigne is testing its products on animals or simply mistreating monkeys.
2 publish false reports: Mr. O'Shaughnessy refers to "anonymous reports", earlier in the conference but this is unrelated to the "monkey abuse" allegations he indicates in this passage.
2 mistreat their employees: Although O'Shaughnessy is in fact referring to "abuse" in the sense of "mistreatment", the monkeys in Delavigne's laboratories are not actually "employees", but "voluntary assistants", as Susie states in response to this question.
2 ignore environmental initiatives: Mr. O'Shaughnessy never mentions the environment, and "monkey abuse" is a different issue than "ignoring environmental initiatives", which Delavigne does not do either.

This statement is false. Trey writes that his years at Cosmic Cosmetics (a cosmetics company) have prepared him for working at Delavigne (also a cosmetics company).
This is a true statement. Trey writes about his 10 years in the customer service field, as well as management experience in a local telemarketing firm. These are clear indications that he has both management and customer service experience.
This is a true statement. Trey writes about his "research of the Delavigne Corporation", which suggests that he has investigated and learned about the company before sending this letter. Researching a company in preparation for an interview is a typical practice and an effective way to impress an employer.
This statement is false. Trey never admits to being "under-qualified" for the position. On the contrary, Trey writes that he is the "ideal candidate" and that his skills are a "perfect fit" for the Delavigne Corporation. "To be under-qualified" is to not possess enough qualifications or skills for something.
