Will my job experience during graduation count towards the work experience requirement for master's applications?

Yes, your job experience during graduation can count towards the work experience requirement for master's applications, especially if it is relevant to your chosen field. Universities often accept internships, part-time, or full-time roles held during undergraduate studies as valid experience.
With your 6 years of total work experience, including that during graduation, your application will be stronger - especially since your experience is closely related to your intended master's program.
