You have a strong profile. If you can translate all the above achievements into good essays, I think you can easily get to the interview stage. These schools will like your international experience. If you are located in Zurich, you should also visit the above schools. It will help you. Focus on your essays for now.

I am not clear about your achievements at work, leadership experiences, and extra curricular activities. Speak to few students and alumni of these schools. Good luck!
