There are two final things to ask before thanking the recruiter for his or her time and moving on to the next organization.

First, ask about the next steps in the recruitment process. What can be expected to happen next? What is the timetable? Is there anything you can do to aid in the decision-making (such as submitting work samples, transcripts, etc.)?

Second, ask about the preferred method of following-up your conversation. Some folks love email, others prefer a phone call. Ask for his or her preference.
