Depends on the employer. I've seen employers whose job application requires candidates to account for every gap, by month/year.
Example:
12/2017 - present - XYZ company, yadda yadda
8-2017 - 11/2017 - unemployed
2/2016 - 7-2017 - ABC company, etc.
Some care about gaps that are recent, others care about all gaps.
Remember, a typical employer gets 100-200 applications per job ad, so they're looking for any reason to reject them.
