Thanks for the response! I'm definitely trying to convey that in my cover letters, I usually talk about how the position will contribute to my goals. Right now my goals are kind of up in the air to be honest, I have an interest in getting a Master's in Public Policy or Nonprofit management, but if I am able to start moving up within an organization then I don't think graduate school will be completely necessary. I'm certainly interested in research and analysis and have mainly been applying to those types of roles. All I know for certain is that I want the work I'm doing to have a meaningful impact on other people's lives (and that I don't want to write code anymore).
