I'll put 1 or 2 sentences of the nature of the job, and mostly consists of accomplishments and net results, rather than only listing my duties.
Can anyone shed light on this on bullet points vs paragraph format for each job?
And if bullet points is the way to go, how many bullet points max?

Cannot tell you sure what way to go, for the last resume I did was 7 years ago and it was in bullet format. Actually, I have not used a paragraph resume since like 2005. I think one of my bosses, said that was a better format many years ago.
Been a long, long time for me in looking for another position
Hope that helps
