I had three different positions over twelve years at my first job. Does that count as three?

If so, then four.

Yes.

Also double space it, but NEVER double space it. Centre the text, but right align it. Don't include qualifications, but put them all down.

Every time in the past I went for a "CV check" I'd be told completely different things and to NEVER do things I was told were highly recommended.

Why were you fires from your jobs?
call center job - woman accused me of sexual harassment. except that none of it actually happened. but they had to fire someone so i got the boot.

real estate job - on day 1 of the job, my supervisor overheard me say "i hate this job", he got pissed and reported it to his boss. his boss came out and immediately fired me. "i dont want you working here, you blew one hell of an opportunity, pack up your things, i'm walking you out"
