<prompt> Human: Hi all. Hope this relevant.Per title, Im leaving for law school. I will be leaving the state at the end of Julybeginning of August.Right now I work at a university. Full-time, salaried, in the IT department. I have no direct peers-- theres one of me who does my job. They will need a replacement, and any gap between my departure and findingtraining a replacement will be very uncomfortable for them.Naturally, the tension is between giving them enough notice to find a replacement this has taken weeks in the past, and not putting myself at risk to be replaced and dismissed early so I miss out on a chunk of money. While I would like to assist in training my replacement, doing so would mean giving even more advanced notice, thus increasing my risk.Two weeks would be the safest option, as it puts me at minimal risk. It would also be a borderline Dick Move.A month would give them sufficient time to find and hire someone into my role.Six weeks would give them sufficient time to hire someone and afford me an opportunity to get the new person acquainted with the various systems, processes, and personnel involved in the job.What say you, pf?  <response>: I work in higher ed too - one month is the standard here. and is in fact policy if you want vacation days paid out at the end. Theres never been an issue of being let go before the month is over - hiring processes at universities are long and tedious, and if your employer is anything like mine they wont let you go early. Definitely check your HR policies - it may be written in there what the expectation is.
