Try something like:
"""
Hi [name],

Thank you for the interview on [date]. I'm checking in to confirm that I am still interested. I enjoyed interviewing with you and was impressed by your company. Is there anything I can provide to help the process at this stage?
"""

If you can think of a new question you have about the company, you can add that here. This is also a good place to show you paid attention to their needs in the interview. For example:

"""
By the way, in the interview it was clear that Active Directory is very important to you, and I know that's an area that I am lacking in. I took a moment to install Active Directory on a virtual machine to increase my exposure. Let me know if there's a particular subtopic you would like me to become more familiar with.
"""

And of course, close by thanking them for their time, and for inviting you to reach out to follow up. Be sure to treat this as a formal communication, and avoid abbreviating words as single letters or numbers.

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?
