Looking at the INSEAD MBA and ESSEC MBA program but they look really expensive and also difficult to enter. Especially during a recession period, I don't actually know how valuable a paper qualification really would be in my career

Depends on your objective. I think alot of people go for an MBA to reset or have an opportunity to enter another field. (eg. consulting/vc/ private equity or product).
Definitely improves your employability but the opp cost is unknown. Better to check out some recent graduates and learn about their employment results.

Local universities' masters programme has gained more recognition, hence they are not too much worse...

The biggest benefit from joining these two MBA programs in my view is the opportunity to directly break into the fields of management consulting or investment banking at a top firm.
For breaking into other corporate roles (e.g. product management) or changing to a different sector, industry or even geography, usually, it's more "efficient" to go into a more similar role for 1-2 years and then switch over to your dream job
For breaking into the buy side (i.e. PE, VC and HF), it is very challenging to break in even without prior experience even if you do the MBA.
