Using bullet points in a non-fiction text is a clear way to organize information you wish to present. The types of text that are suitable for bullet points are lists, notes, instructions, and information texts.
To use bullet points correctly, there needs to be a piece of introductory text, ending in a colon. The information to be shown in the bullet points is each set on a separate line. Capital letters and full stops are not required unless the bullet points themselves are full sentences.
The capital cities in the United Kingdom are:

Potential interview questions:
