Your best chance at getting a job here is through a company transfer.

Otherwise, take the online assessment to see if you qualify as a skilled worker:

If you are granted a PR visa, you can go to Canada without a job. You probably want to try to find a job pretty quickly because it's expensive to live here. But you don't need a job before you arrive.

With a BS in Economics you can get a better job than customer service agent.
Have you tried to brush up your skills and apply for positions far and wide?
Or is this a temporary job? Sorry for being off topic, it is just that
with this degree you can probably immigrate in the skilled worker category
if the job suits your degree, which does not seem to be true in your case
