I will be an author on a paper due to my work during my most recent internship. The paper is not yet published and currently in the process of doing so.

On my last day, my boss told me that she has seen people add authorship of a paper on their resume as being in the process of publication. Should I do this or wait until it is officially published in a journal?

This is ok. Just put the title of the article with authors along with the journal name. Then just put in parentheses after it that it is yet to be published.

It's fine. Put something like, accepted, not yet published.

List the authors, title, journal, year, and also the page numbers, volume, etc. if you know that. Then in italics at the end, you can either put "In press" or "Submitted", depending on where the paper is at in the publication process.

I'd just put that shite as if it's already published... unless you're trying to get a journalism/etc job, there is a much less likely chance of them looking into it.

I'd roll the dice.

If it's been accepted to the journal put (In Press) or (In Publication) after the name of the journal in the citation. That's what I do and what everybody else I know does.
