A finance job that ain’t too special? [advice]

In need of advice, so please try not to take the piss (too much). I graduated from William and Mary last year with a 3.3 in finance. After graduating, I wanted little part of the finance life, but I think I’m gonna have to use my degree before getting on to something else.

Could anyone point to a segment of finance that isn’t overly selective or brutal? I’m fine working 40-50 hrs a week and sometimes more. Ideally somewhere on east coast.
