[Student] OR Graduate Student looking for Master's level Operations Research Engineer roles

I'm a graduate student in my final semester looking to land an Operations Research Engineer or adjacent role (Machine Learning Engineer, Data Scientist, Data Engineer, etc.) but my background was initially in Engineering with some Operations Research adjacent projects and analysis. When I was applying for previous cycles I was mainly getting interviews for traditional engineering roles with only a few hits for Operations Research roles but I've started to get some more interviews on the OR side. I wanted to know what I should do to improve my resume since it might seem like my experience is more engineering focused. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Anyone have insight into ORIE 6500 & 6300 or CS 5777 & 5820?

Hello, I am an Early MEng student in ORIE looking to take some of the more advanced PhD classes in ORIE since I did take real analysis and have done fairly well and TAed some of the ORIE core courses (2700, 3300, 3310, 3500, 3510 & 4580) and am more interested in Stochastic Processes and gaining a deeper understanding of Linear and Integer Programming. Also, I wanted to gain deeper exposure to practical applications of ML after having taken a more theory-heavy ML class (ORIE 5741) and a more robust understanding of algorithms after taking baby Algo (ORIE 3310). Any insight into these classes would be great. Thank you!
