Periods At End Of Bullets Resume
Should you have full stops at the end of bullet points.
Periods at end of bullets resume. The most common sections to insert bulleted items include. When I write a resume with a client I ask my client how he or she feels about the period issue. Short answer is nope.
This means to add a full stop after every bullet point. Use no punctuation after bullets that are not sentences. Apr 27 2012 - 914am.
I highly recommend the use of periods as it also denotes a more complete statement. Unfortunately in practice bullet points can do the exact opposite. Should resume bullet points be one line.
It just plain feels right to me. This includes bullet points like the image above where only single words are displayed on each line. Endless bullets can be tedious to read.
If you finish your bullets with a period then do it all the way through. If you end each bullet with a dot in one place and omit the dots later in the document it gives an impression of carelessness. Apr 27 2012 - 913am.
Since most bullet points are not complete sentences dont use periods. Believe it or not the simple period often gets misused on resumesOf course periods are good to put at the end of complete sentences. Avoid forcing an HR manager to wade through a bulleted list of incomplete details.
