Advice for starting my career in a very niche coverage group

I’ll be starting my career in corporate banking covering Branded Retail and Franchise finance. I have aspirations of going to B-School. How much will the nicheness of my team affect exit/lateral opportunities and B-School admissions.

Also any advice in general for working on a very specialized team is more than welcome.

Thanks
