MSc wont help you to stand out unless it is some sort of crazy specialist topup from Cranfiled or something you need to get chartered. Otherwise it is just a very expensive and introductory short course. If you have done something like a BA in History and hope that one year intro to CS is going to save your ass then you are really setting up yourself for a a major disappointment.
There is not a single Uni ML course that would teach you anything relevant. Reality of the job market is that companies train their own staff. We do that for 5 years now. Uni Degrees wont tell you much about a candidate, graduates are all like clones, completely interchangeable. I have a folder with about 2500 CVs from failed candidates that did not made it to the interview. It's not like they are bad or anything but there is no way of differentiating between them. They are all about 23 years old, random college degree, some got masters some did not, zero experience in anything, no hobbies apart of "music, travelling, socialising".
I am looking for some sort of evidence that you know what you are doing, that you've done something own your own, something hard, for example that you pushed trough a capstone project in the Self Driving Car Engineer course. Something that tells me that you wont bail out after 3 months. Trainees get "just" 27k in their first year but the actual cost of a trainee is about 65k.
Two weeks ago we had a candidate here that build a turret that shoots ice cubes at foxes trying to make it into their garbage, it can tell apart foxes from dogs. I made him to bring it in for his interview, just to make sure that it is real.
