I have done Bachelors in Economics (with honours) - 3 years degree program.
But after that I have worked in the field of marketing. Job code - 0124. I do not have the education listed under the employment requirements. CIC website lists the following under employment requirements:
Advertising and public relations managers
So what should I enter while creating my express entry profile in the column:

If the "primary occupation" is:
