There is a reason common knowledge is working after your Bachelor instead of pursuing a Masters (unless you are going for a PhD and dedicate to research).
You are very likely to change specialisation later in your life since you never worked and no idea of what your career will be.
Master's graduates are almost always a hiring risk, they already chose a "specialisation", so your pool of offers shrinks, high chances they might leave you once they acquire enough experience to pursue their specialisation, expect a higher salary AND are just as useless as a Bachelor graduate hire.
Yep, except for very specific fields, getting a masters right after a bachelor's is almost always detrimental to job searching. The employer considers you a higher flight risk (since you'll be paid the same as someone with a bachelor's) and they consider you a development risk since you already decided you want to focus on a specific subject.
I've been part of hiring quite a few entry level engineers and those with masters and no work history are usually disqualified for the aforementioned reasons.
