"I feel certain that your willingness to listen to my story, a person of your professional standing, reaching out with a helping hand ...it changed my minds wiring.  You are truly gifted. I got a job! Talking with you for 45 minutes ignited my confidence and restructured my energy.  After talking with you I "woke up" to my potential.  An international company called me for an interview, and they hired me on the spot.  This is difficult to convey in an email, but I feel certain that your willingness to listen to my story, a person of your professional standing, reaching out with a helping hand ...it changed my minds wiring.  You are truly gifted. I'm almost in tears as I type.  It has been challenging these last six years, getting turned down, again and again, working in factories and other dirty jobs to pay bills.  This last week has been a dream come true.  I love the job and office culture."
