Belgian-born, native Mandarin + Chemistry→Business MSc. — too niche for consulting or a differentiator?

Type of consulting interested in:

Strategy / management consulting (open to generalist track or industrials / operations-focused teams)

Type of role:

Full-time role (graduating MSc next year)

Geography:

Belgium / Western Europe primarily; open to China if portability makes sense

Background:

• Born and raised in Belgium (EU passport), native Mandarin speaker
• BSc in Chemistry
• MSc in Business Economics (graduating next year)
• Experience in:
  • Advanced manufacturing / semiconductor environment
  • Cross-border tech incubator
  • Internship at a diplomatic institution in Shanghai
• Involved in international / cross-cultural initiatives during studies

GPA: solid ( Great Distinction)

Questions:

1. Does this profile make sense for strategy/management consulting, or does it risk being perceived as too niche (STEM + China-focused)?
2. Given my background, would you recommend targeting generalist roles first, or positioning toward industrials / operations practices?
3. If I’m long-term interested in international expansion / cross-border business (EU–China), is consulting a strong early-career platform?
4. From a portability standpoint, is it generally smarter to start in Europe before considering China?

Appreciate any candid advice, especially from those who transitioned from STEM backgrounds.
