Can I use my certificate acquired on Sololearn when applying for a job?

Some employers do specify areas of expertise for their prospective employees.

I doubt that any employer would be impressed by the introductory level of achievement that a Sololearn certificate represents. But don't feel disappointed by that. Instead be challenged to build on what you learned and start looking for the next step in training that you need to build competency.

You can always use it. The question is would anyone really care? Well, it proves something, but definetely not enough for a position in 99,99% of cases. If you have no education in this field the best way is to make some projects, make them public e.g. on github and apply for a junior positions nearby.

It's not likely to be highly regarded, because Sololearn courses are too short and aren't tested in a way that allows you to fail. They are a good starting point. Focus instead on taking what you've learned and building projects with it.
