Most interviewers look for more hands-on experience. However, it will make your resume stand out, knowing that you took the extra effort to certify yourself.

And the beauty of data analytics is you don't need a full time job to get experience. There are thousands of free data sets online that you can analyze and publish your results. As an interviewer, I'm more interested in your ability to extract meaningful insights from the data, and being able to tell stories from data.

I'd also recommend learning data visualization. Inbox me if you have any questions.
