Present Perfect / Past Simple

Good Time of Day!

  Well, I just read the list of members online and found this:

  --
  In the past 3 days, the most popular thread for  everyone  has
  been "Sample of formal letter writing". The post with the most
  views is "Live chat room". The most  replies  _were_  made  to
  "GUESS MY WORD"
  --

  The first two sentences are in a present tense while the  last
  one uses Past Simple. What's the reason?

Thanks in advance,
Anton

Post author: NhanDinh

Hello:

I'm trying to write this as a cover letter. I would love it to be a cover letter. I don't know how to fix it for it to be more readable and understandable.

Thank you for your help.

I am writing in regards to my interest in your advertised Production Test Specialist position, job number GA7470201. Previously, I worked at DataPath Inc. as an Electrical/Mechanical Assembler Tech. As an assembler, I wired and installed electrical panel, and terminated cables for proper connection to use in a compact trailer-based earth terminal that delivers secure, robust communications at the battalion level for communications on the quick halt (COTQH). I am also familiar with 12Volt battery and battery relay. Furthermore, I used function generator, oscilloscope analyzer, and digital multi-meter regularly in the technology lab at our University. During my academic years, I have learned and experienced multi-tasks and knowledge of engineering concepts, practices, and procedures. With my experience and knowledge, I feel that I am highly qualified for the position.

Iâll be graduating from Southern Polytechnic State University with a bachelor degree in Electrical Engineering Technology. I am proficient in Assembly Language, VHDL, MatLab, MathCad, and LabView. I also have strong understanding in circuit analysis. I am an expert in multi-tasking, performing various electrical and mechanical duties.

Dear Ms. Winston:

The purpose of this is to convey to you my sincere apologies for any inconvenience you may have experienced last month with respect to the installation
of your Internet high speed service.

I just returned from vacation this week and found your file in my in-basket. As soon as I reviewed your case it was clear that somehow your May 20th request
for a change in service had somehow slipped through the cracks. The only possible explanation I can give is that we have recently had a number of key staff
changes which might have resulted in your letter being overlooked.

Consequently, I have directed our Installation Group to contact you by the end of this week to set up a time convenient to you when they could go to your
house and install your new router and make the necessary adjustments to your software.

Because of this serious oversight, and as a testament to our appreciation of you as our customer, we are going to provide you with your first three months
of high speed service free of charge. Therefore, your account will not be billed until October of this year.

Ms. Quinlan, let me assure you that what happened in your case is not typical of CableNet's level of customer service. We continue to be committed to providing
you and all of our customers with the highest standards of service in the industry.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to call me at 754-9785.

It's hard to provide you with a sample letter without knowing more information.

If you want, you can send me your draft at mountainhiker @ 138mail.com (spaces are too fool the spam bots--just remove the spaces).

Come back and let me know that I must check my e-mail account. I can then get your draft.

Key information....

Tell me about the organization
-why do you want to work for them
-Why are they good
-what is their "culture" like etc.

Tell me about you....

Hope that helps.
