Learn English – Synonym of ‘making sense’ in noun form

single-word-requestssynonyms

I would like to ask whether my application for a given position makes sense.
That is, given some circumstances, does it really make sense for me to apply for the position?

Could you kindly please assess the make-sense-ability of my
application given the above circumstances?

More specifically, a word that would convey the fact that the application is not futile and that is has indeed a purpose (and thus makes sense) given the circumstances, would be a good fit.

I am not looking for feasibility nor viability, both of which pertain to the state or degree of being easily or conveniently done – not what I am asking for.

I would guess that words such as legitimacy or justifiability (if that noun exists) would come closer to what is needed.

I thought that a noun derived from the adjective sensible (characteristic of sth making sense) would fit, but sensibility is is off-track, since it pertains to emotions.

Perhaps purposefulness? (again, given that word exists)
