What major within the BSc?

Your question is very vague.

For Physics, some examples include Meteorology (i.e. BOM), Nuclear Scientist (think ANSTO), Astronomer etc... If you look beyond the careers that strictly use physics knowledge and look at the skills that people with a physics major possess and applying them (e.g. analytical skills) then career prospects are much broader e.g. includes banking and trading

Unless you plan on going on to do a Masters, then not many career opportunities. The career opportunities with a BSc are generally research based.
