Entry into the Machine Learning field

Hi everyone!
I am new to this forum.
Recently I started the Machine Learning Specialisation course 1 by Andrew Ng.
I just graduated as Electrical Engineer this summer and now I want to divert my career towards Machine Learning.
Can someone please guide me on how can I start to prepare myself so I can get into the job market as fast as possible?
I know it will take some time, but a stride in the right direction and guidance can be really helpful to enter the job market as soon as possible.
Thank you!
