Dear Ms. Doe,

Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to discuss the marketing position at Company X with you on Wednesday, April 21. After meeting with you and learning more about the position, I am confident my background and skills will allow me to excel within Company X.

As you mentioned in the interview, you are looking for (insert the traits the employer is seeking in a candidate, i.e. ambitious, competitive, patient). (Reiterate how you possess these traits by giving specific examples, i.e. through the lessons learned while being a student-athlete, I have shown how my work ethic and ambition have correlated to success.)

Once again, thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you. Feel free to contact me by phone at 555- 555-5555 or via e-mail at johndoe@athletes4hire.com.

Sincerely,
