Can a MS in econ help me break in at an associate level?

I'm a Dec 2019 graduate with a BSBA in finance at age 26. I was about to get an offer before covid hit and everything was paused. As a result, my alma mater Drexel is offering 50% off MS tuition for recent graduates. I like econ, and I would love a job in macro or equity research, public finance, or just straight up economics. Does a MS mean anything for jobs like this? Or will I still inevitably come in at an analyst level?
