Transitioning into a new career

In May I graduated with an econ degree, and for the past 3 months I’ve been working a corporate job at a large logistics company. Though I’ve learned a lot, I see the writing on the wall and would like to transition into the field that I studied. I’ve been looking for jobs that are relatively attainable, i.e., pricing analyst, FP&A, etc. Any recommendations on how to make this transition and secure a job in this market? Thanks.
