The former boss of the Briton identified in reports as the sadistic Islamic State killer "Jihadi John" has said he was "the best employee we ever had".
Mohammed Emwazi was "very good with people" and was "calm and decent", according to the head of an IT firm in Kuwait, which hired the then 21-year-old as a salesman.
He also expressed shock the person he had known was behind the reign of terror in the IS videos.
Emwazi, 26, is believed to have murdered at least five Western hostages, including Britons Alan Henning and David Haines.
His ex-boss told The Guardian newspaper: "He was the best employee we ever had.
"He was very good with people. Calm and decent. He came to our door and gave us his CV."
The executive added: "How could someone as calm and quiet as him become like the man who we saw on the news? It's just not logical that he could be this guy.
"Maybe he fell into the wrong hands when he went back."
Emwazi left the company suddenly in April 2010 after returning to London.
Further details about the killer came as emails emerged suggesting Emwazi considered suicide when he was a student, after suspecting MI5 was closing in on him.
He told a journalist in 2010 that he felt like a "dead man walking".
Emwazi had also contacted a campaign group after he was questioned by counter-terrorism officers while attempting to fly from Heathrow to his native Kuwait in 2010.
In emails to the CAGE organisation, he claimed the security services were "stopping him from living his new life" abroad, where he had secured a job and was getting married.
When Emwazi was first unmasked as "Jihadi John", representatives from CAGE described him as "extremely kind and gentle" and "the most humble young person we ever knew".
Meanwhile, divisions have opened up between the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats over whether radical preachers should be banned from university campuses.
Conservative Party chairman Grant Shapps revealed on Sky News there is a "difference of opinion" within the coalition.
It comes after a former student at the London university where Emwazi studied said the campus was a toxic environment of radical Islam.
The University of Westminster, where Emwazi studied from 2006 and 2009 and earned a computer programming degree, has vehemently denied the claim.
In an interview on Sky's Murnaghan programme, Mr Shapps said: "Vince Cable doesn't want to do what the Conservatives want to do, which is to make sure that on campus we do not have radical preachers saying things which incite violence which ultimately can lead to the radicalisation of young people."
The department headed by the Lib Dem Business Secretary is responsible for higher education.
Mr Shapps said: "We have seen these three girls go off to Syria. We have seen Jihadi John. We don't think that sort of preaching should happen in our universities.
