No, it doesn't matter. Most companies do not care about few months of gap.

I have taken 1+ year long gaps, and still found jobs after that. You just have to be able to explain the reasons for the gap, and show that you used the gap period in a useful manner for upskillng and doing certifications etc.

Also, approaching companies through employee referrals after a gap, helps a lot in getting interviews. Good luck!
