no it must not hamper your career specially when you do MS degree and then seek job,because almost all the companies conducts written exams and interview so you do MS and prepare for the exams,crack them and you are in,that's it

A 7 years gap in studies will hinder your further educations.

However,its depends upon your own ability,that you can fill the gap or not.If you really want to study good and make a good career,then dont think about it,you have to face some difficulties at the starting,but dont worry eventually you will be able to succeed.

MS is a good plan,as this type of degree in very rare found in Indians it will help you in hiding your educational gap to some extend.MS is a well reputed proffestional degree,it will also help you in further specializations.

Best of luck

well frankly speaking it may hinder your job seeking....but at the same time...its not that you will not get a job as masters degree will never go waste.....its good that you are going for MS in IT it will make some chances for you in IT sector.....
now it is you who will have to convince the HR interviewer about the 7 yrs gap you took and what you did in those years......if he could understand you , then its all good for you......

best of luck

Well a 7 years gap may effect your job seeking plans.It even depends upon your ability to turn out things in your way.

If you just go for a interview then their first question will be

"What have you done these 7 years?"

The MS degree may help you but if you have an appropriate answer for the above question then its well and good.Having another certificate in your hand will surely help you.

all the best
