I’m starting to look for a new job, but I’m stressing about the notice period. I told my boss I’d give her 3 months' notice because we're close and I thought I was going back to school, but I changed my mind. Now that I’m just job hunting, I’m worried that if I tell her too early, I’ll be let go before I find something new. Should I let her know now or wait until I have an offer?

Wait until you have an offer. Close or not, she's still your boss. You don't want your boss knowing you're planning on leaving. Even if she doesn't act on it directly out of respect for your friendship, someone above her could. Wait.

Some companies have a policy that you will immediately be escorted off once you give that notice. It’s nothing personal. I would wait, and for future situations, just keep it all to yourself.

Have you been in that position? Is it paid?

I would not say anything yet. Protect yourself first. Giving notice before you have something confirmed puts all the risk on you.
