Just plan for 6 months to look for a job in general (irrespective of why you’re now looking)
But it could be less
It could be more

But no, PIPs happen. Just tell your friend to make up a story about why they are switching and be confident about it. They should see if they can get a referral from their old company too, and let interviewers know that they have that

I’m at my step dad’s lake house and it’s in a gated very upper class neighborhood. There was a holiday party last night and it was incredible how much people were gossiping and talking crap about other people at this party. Everyone was very “successful” and wealthy, and it was just so weird seeing all of this drama and gossip from people who seem to have it all.
