In this article from 2023 explans how to achive exactly that for all types.

Using the override on ConfigureConventions and from the received ModelConfigurationBuilder then you can achieve that:

public class RiderConverter() : ValueConverter<EquineBeast, string> 
(
    v => v.ToString(),
    v => (EquineBeast)Enum.Parse(typeof(EquineBeast), v));
);

protected override void ConfigureConventions(ModelConfigurationBuilder configurationBuilder)
{
    configurationBuilder
        .Properties<Rider>()
        .HaveConversion<RiderConverter>();
}

This is will also allow to specify other properties like Types, max lengths, requireds... etc!
