1 fast-paced: This is the correct choice. A "fast-paced" job is a job where things happen quickly. In this text, the narrator says he had to "work very quickly". In Brian's cover letter, he writes that he is looking for a "fast-paced" job.
2 array: This is the correct choice. An "array" refers to a "variety" of something. In this text, the narrator had to perform a wide variety of tasks, "from making posters to cleaning the tomatoes off the stage every morning". Other examples: "an array of choices", "an array of chocolates".
3 multi-tasking: This is the correct choice. "Multi-tasking" refers to the ability to work on several tasks at once. In this text, the narrator says he "had to do all these things all at once", or complete multiple tasks at the same time. In this exercise, the narrator says that his tasks included making posters and cleaning the tomatoes off the stage every morning. In his cover letter, Brian writes that he is looking for a job in a "multi-tasking" environment.
4 meeting deadlines: This is the correct choice. "To meet a deadline" is to complete a task in a determined amount of time. For example, "I met the April deadline for paying my taxes". In this exercise, the narrator says he had difficulty getting things done on time and "meeting deadlines". In his cover letter, Brian writes that he has a facility for "meeting deadlines".
5 reference: This is the correct choice. A "reference" in this context refers a former employer or contact who can recommend a person as a candidate for a new job. The narrator says he is using his former boss at the comedy club as a reference when he applies to new jobs.
6 application: This is the correct choice. A job "application" refers to a request for employment, usually submitted in paper format. It usually includes a CV, a cover letter, and a list of references. In English, "to submit an application" is a common expression.

This is a true statement. Luna writes that the candidate who has been offered the job "comes with excellent references". In this context, "references" are written recommendations, particularly from past employers. This means that the successful candidate comes "highly recommended".
This statement is not a reason why the new employee has been hired.
This is one of the reasons why the successful candidate has been offered the position. Luna writes that the person who has been offered the job "has a great deal of experience". In this context, a "great deal" is "a lot" or "much".
This is not one of the reasons Luna gives for hiring the successful candidate. There is no suggestion in her email that Luna knows the new employee personally. And besides, there's never any nepotism at Delavigne!
This statement is true. Luna informs T-Bone that the new Delavigne employee "can start work at 9AM every day". "9AM" is 9 o'clock in the morning, which is the time when most offices and shops open for business.

This statement is false. A candidate might list his hobbies and interests on his CV under a category named "hobbies", "personal interests", or "extracurricular activities", for example.
This statement is false. A candidate includes their past professional experience in their CV, not in a list of references.
This statement is false. An official record of grades received at a school is called "a transcript" in English. Job applicants often submit "transcripts" and other educational information to a prospective employer.
This statement is false. A candidate might list their favorite books, authors, artists, etc in a separate category such as "hobbies" or "personal interests".
This statement is correct. In this context, Brian's "references" are Brian's former employers who are recommending him as a candidate for this job at the Delavigne Corporation. A list of references might simply include the names and contact information of a previous employer, or a letter of recommendation written on behalf of the job candidate. Note that "references" are sometimes called "referees" in British English.
