Hi,

I'm at the final exam part of the Google AdWords certification. I am going to take the final exam tomorrow morning.

This certification should look great on my Resume to get an entry level marketing specialist/SEO job. I never finished college and completed some coding bootcamps on Apple Swift 4 and FreeCodeCamp on my education section on my Resume. I have the credentials that I should be able to get an entry level salaried IT and or marketing position in a company.
