I was not sure whether to put this thread in Off Topic or P&N.

I have a question.... with all these people yelling they don't want to take vaccines, and offices requesting their employees to take the vaccine.... should I put fully vaccinated for COVID in my resume? Would it make me standout from the others in a good way?

Depends on where you are .... in NYC it will help (or at least not hurt) same in Connecticut.

A lot of places down south though not so much. :confused:

I would not list that on my resume unless it was mentioned in the posting.

Pretty much this. Your resume should be tailored to the job posting.

My company is requiring people to be vaccinated to go into the office, but that information is being collected/catalogued by a single person in a separate stream from normal HR things.

Don't put it on a resume, but expect that it might come up informally, and unofficially, in an interview conversation.
