I’d reply with something generic. It’s a small world and she might be in a position to help you again at some point.
“Hey so nice hearing from you. I’ll see what I can do on my end, take care!”
Then do nothing.

Literally this. I always tell people I’ll see what I can do! They don’t need to know that the thing I do is tell my hiring team not to hire.
Not defending that manager but 99% of the times they are not allowed to reach out and say anything because lawsuits.
Yes it is brody, yes it is.
Tell them you’re sorry to hear b/c you know how tough it is. Say you’ll see what you can do to help… then don’t do anything.
Bless their heart approach
Absolutely not. It would take a LOT to get me to not say something a little petty tbh. Also hell yeah that you get the satisfaction of being in this position now!
Don’t burn bridges. Your manager might have not reached out to you, but you still have a long runway in your career. And you need as many good connections as possible. The universe will notice.
Yeah a lot of times they are not permitted to contact. If you get a referral, why not push along what you can.
That's a hard NOPE.
Post their message here, but redact personal bit. Let the Games begin 🙌
You should actually help her if you think she would actually be a good fit for the job--even if you don't like her. A job can change someone's whole life. Don't be the barrier of an opportunity they clearly need. I'm not saying get her the job, but at least doing a referral/passing her resume on and letting her is good karma to bank.
If they need you to help them they probably have bigger issues.
My managers never reach out after the last time too
NO.

I might reply and tell her how you feel just to get it off your chest
No, girl
What goes around! Nope!
