Past work experience is important, so I'd look to do some relevant volunteer work immediately.
And even if you haven't done work or even extra curricular activities, you can still talk about your experiences in a positive light.
For example, if with your vacation time you traveled all over, you can mention how skilled you are at devising itineraries and handling details and your familiarity with different cultures... You could work for a travel company.
Or talk about your interests, because you done something to make those areas your interests, and there's bound to be some skills involved with each.
However, my experience is that most jobs do not care about extra curricular activities. They want to know that you can get the job done. So show them how you will get the job done.
Grad schools, that I don't know about.
