What jobs could I 'walk into' with a first class degree?

I know I sound like an entitled ****, but I worked hard for my first class (Mechanical Engineering) and I am tired of jumping through hoops. What careers theoretically can I get into easily (not necessarily engineering related)?

And yes experience is better than a good degree, I have had an internship and a few summer jobs but nothing special.

I guess the biggest question is "What sort of careers interest you?"

There's no point suggesting careers you're not gonna find satisfying/enjoyable

Having a first doesn't mean you can 'walk into' any job.

I suppose something technical that doesn't require sitting at a computer would be ideal.
