Answer 1

Why is it some answers always sound like fortune cookies?

Your plan for PG in Rural Development is admirable, though not necessarily on track (you already have an advanced degree). An ideal situation would be to get hired into an organization, then let them subsidize additional graduate work. Even if it means starting at a lower level than you may wish, you would be gaining valuable experience and time-in-service within the organization.

One of the best ways to determine a course of study/internship/work experience best for a future position is to look at the position requirements of current positions in the target organization.

Answer 2

Social Work is the course best for social development.
