Whats the purpose of struggling on your own through college?

I live alone with no support, first time in college. I work hard and try everything that I can do to better myself. My #life lesson is still pending to me.

What should I expect when it comes to sexism and racism in the STEM field, because I know it's quite pervasive in the US?

I'm South Asian, muslim, and a woman, and so far I've not experienced a lot of sexist or racist treatment, but I expect I'll run into it eventually. Is there any ideology I should keep in mind, or any resources I should look into?

How should you go about getting a job after graduation if you have no work experience?

You can't include work experience/history or applications or resumes if you don't have any, so what do you do instead? How does this affect your application process when you're looking for a career?
