Be nice enough to tell him, that you can not do anything more for him.
Then walk away.

HE USED YOU!!! U ARE BEING USED!! MOVE FAR AWAY FROM HIM.
Or get closer to himn to beat the living [censored] out of him.
Done deal.

You said you considered him a real friend. How would you like to be considered?

He blew you off and now he's in the hotseat for a job at your firm and all of a sudden you're good enough to talk to again? If i were you I wouldn't help him out. Sounds to me like you're being used.

x2, but I wouldn't necessarily use that phrasing... I'd call or e-mail him and say, "Hey, didn't you apply a few months ago? What happened with that?" Then after he gives you his excuse, say, "It's too bad you didn't use my name like you did last time. I would have gotten a referral and helped you out."
Then, depending on his response, you can decide whether to assist him again. That's what IWD

John.. my brother.
a little more dragon my friend. You and I have had talks about a natural tendency to avoid that.. now you need to try it.
Calm down.. let it go.. anyone that doesn't deserve the job will ruin it for themselves, so give him a hand up.. You will be rewarded in the future.. how far in the future (the ultimate?) is unknown, but YOU will be repayed FAR MORE than that bonus he outed you.
Do what you know is right... having to post to as WWWD shows you already know that.

Wait & listen.
Then let him know you considered him a friend & want to know why you haven't heard from him very much recently.
Wait & listen.
Decide.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Are you sure you want to be working with this dude after all this? If he does get the job, tell him he owes you the referral bonus. You might still be able to get it, since you originally sent his resume to HR.
Feel free to sabatoge his efforts, too.
This tool is just using you, and it's obvious.
