Variational quantum algorithms are promising for solving combinatorial optimization problems on near-term, pre-fault-tolerant quantum hardware. However, to what extent these algorithms harness quantum correlations and whether current quantum devices can provide them remains unclear. This work investigates this open question by examining the roles of entanglement and nonstabilizerness within the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA). To begin, we leverage a strong connection between QAOA and quantum metrology, using quantum squeezing to analyze entanglement through numerical simulations and experiments on IBM quantum hardware. While increasing bipartite entanglement with system size is known to be insufficient for fully unlocking quantum computational advantages, we address this limitation by focusing on genuine multipartite entanglement. Finally, we examine the role of nonstabilizerness in QAOA and investigate how it relates to output fidelity. Our results provide deeper insights into how quantum resources influence quantum optimization.
