It isn't actually common knowledge but WandaVision is in fact set before the events of Spider-Man: Far From Home. Whereas the second Spidey film takes place in the summer a few months after 'The Blip', the gap between Avengers: Endgame and WandaVision is only a matter of weeks, which makes the finale's mid-credits scene even more interesting.

As Jimmy Woo and the FBI descend upon Westview, an agent pulls Monica Rambeau aside and tells her that some other agents would like to speak to her in the theatre. Once inside, the agent who spoke to Monica reveals herself to be a Skrull, and that she was sent by "an old friend of [her] mother's" who would like to meet Monica, before pointing upwards towards space.

The implication here is that Nick Fury, who only briefly encountered Monica's mother, Maria, in Captain Marvel, is looking to recruit Monica for his new space-based task force.

We have no idea what that unit is called, although some have speculated it could be S.T.R.I.K.E. or even Alpha Flight, but we can expect it to have a key part to play in the upcoming Captain Marvel sequel currently slated to release some time in 2022.
