Work experience is best, but if you get an interview for those skills just be ready

You can, but I'd be clear about your level of expertise. Like "some experience in SQL" or "entry-level experience with Python". That way you're being honest.

Yup, not only can you but you should. Adding skills will help your profile show up in more searches

Absolutely! Make yourself look as good as possible. You're paying for the course might as well flaunt them.

Of course! Fake it till you make it. Also, make sure you start building your portfolio, it will be helpful when looking for a job.

Absolutely! It's a nice way to boost your profile.

Don't see why not. Recruiters are always looking for certifications like this when they're doing boolean searches for open requisitions.

How do you go about not underselling yourself on a resume/interview while also not exaggerating your accomplishments? I have a lot of team/group experience but I think it would be an exaggeration to just say for example “formulated Omni-channel marketing plan targeting gen x consumer in consideration of a buy now pay later plan”. I had a role on a team and contributed, but I have heard recruiters are off put by stating you were part of a team effort since they don’t know your contribution to it.
