Will having a gap in my resume affect my chances for admission to good universities in Netherlands for a Master's?

No, having a gap in your resume does not automatically reduce your chances for admission to good universities in the Netherlands, especially for master’s programs.

Admissions committees mainly focus on your academic record, relevant work experience, and motivation. A gap can be acceptable if you clearly explain it and show how you used that time - such as gaining work experience, skills, or internships.

With your four years of experience in Electronics and Communication Engineering, you can present this as a strength and demonstrate your commitment to the field. Be sure to highlight this in your application.
