Between client trips, red-eye flights, and late-night Python models, he&#8217;s fighting to stay fit. \u201cIt\u2019s going extremely well\u2014busy but rewarding,\u201d he says on the edge of a sweat. We subsequently pack the usual half-hour chat into fifteen minutes at double the km\/h. \u201cA lot of travel, a lot of complex problems you\u2019re solving with your team. The learning curve is pretty steep.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A graduate of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/school-science-technology\/programs\/master-in-computer-science-and-business-technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology<\/a>, Henry\u2019s built the kind of career most people only talk about. He\u2019s consulting for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/?cid=brand24-pse-ggl-mbm-m01-brand24-nsa-oth&amp;keyword=mckinsey&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=21752301305&amp;gbraid=0AAAAA-HEd2cuUz22VCPxEhATLD2lLSy1u&amp;gclid=CjwKCAiA2svIBhB-EiwARWDPjnbjkJn6r7wkJluT9GfPmcF4bcLoeihTFTa5i5tnckLFT2Fmc42ceBoCYfwQAvD_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">McKinsey<\/a> in energy and tech, juggling strategy with data modeling, and chasing excellence with a kind of intensity that never really switches off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s it like working at McKinsey?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBasically 60 to 65% of my job is traditional consulting\u2014client-side work, particularly in energy and technology,\u201d says Henry. \u201cThe other 40% I spend building data models or forecasting energy demand. Everything\u2019s connected.\u201d His hybrid role keeps him on the edge of both analysis and execution, where numbers drive billion-euro decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Right now, he\u2019s deep in an automotive case in Europe. \u201cWe\u2019re doing complex calculations in Python and Excel VBA to decrease costs,\u201d he explains. \u201cYou\u2019ve got Tier 1, Tier 2 suppliers, market analysis, production\u2014it\u2019s a deep system. You have to actually understand the numbers.\u201d It\u2019s the kind of work that rewards endurance as much as intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis week I had no time to go to the gym,\u201d he says. \u201cBut that\u2019s how you create impact for the client. If you work from nine to five, your results look like nine to five. If you work from eight to two, they look different. And the client notices.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you get a job at McKinsey?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Unsurprisingly, Henry\u2019s obsession with excellence didn\u2019t start in consulting. \u201cIn university, I\u2019d study until two or three in the morning,\u201d he says. \u201cIf I do something, I want to do it correctly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It makes sense, since that same mindset carried him through one of the toughest recruitment processes in business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMcKinsey has five interviews,\u201d he explains. \u201cThe first is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/7-reasons-to-study-hr-with-mariana-de-la-maza\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HR<\/a>. The next four are one hour each\u201430 minutes personal experience, 30 minutes problem-solving. You need a real story, like inclusive leadership, and they\u2019ll drill you with follow-ups. You can\u2019t fake it.\u201d Then comes the case: \u201cYou break down the problem, do the math by hand, talk about risks, and deliver a synthesis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IE School of Science &amp; Technology helped him sharpen that edge. \u201cThey gave me CaseCoach access, mock interviews with Sean, and credits to speak with a McKinsey recruiter. Then I just practiced nonstop. It\u2019s rough, but doable if you really want it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-did-the-master-in-computer-science-amp-business-technology-help-henry\">How did the Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology help Henry?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before studying his master&#8217;s degree in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/studying-in-madrid-discover-a-city-of-growth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Madrid<\/a>, Henry had already worked in the US as an IT project manager. But he wanted more depth. \u201cI\u2019d managed IT projects but never studied it,\u201d he says. \u201cSo I started from zero. I had some island knowledge\u2014bits that didn\u2019t connect.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That changed fast. \u201cAt IE I learned how to actually think like a developer. It doesn\u2019t matter if it\u2019s Excel, Python, or C\u2014you learn how to structure a problem and develop it.\u201d Those mental models are what he now uses daily at McKinsey, where he codes in the firm\u2019s internal language to solve data problems across sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt would\u2019ve been way harder to get the position without the master,\u201d he says. \u201cThe IE brand opens doors. And the competition inside the program toughened me up. You learn teamwork, but you also learn how to perform under pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What advice does Henry have for future candidates?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d definitely recommend doing it,\u201d Henry says. \u201cEspecially if you want to break into tech.\u201d For him, the real advantage is how much you can extract from the experience if you stay proactive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cUse everything IE offers\u2014clubs, events, networking,\u201d he says. \u201cLook left and right, explore what interests you, not just what\u2019s written in the syllabus. You\u2019re diving into a world of IT. Find out what part of it actually fits you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And even he admits the mindset shift matters as much as the output. \u201cTake it easy. You\u2019re in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/my-ie-experience-estimated-cost-of-living-in-madrid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Madrid<\/a>. Don\u2019t freak out about grades. Learn, stay active, find what you love. The rest comes by itself.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s next for Henry Aschke?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere are a lot of paths within McKinsey,\u201d says Henry. \u201cI know people at QuantumBlack, where it\u2019s pure data science. That could be next. But for now, I\u2019m staying put\u2014it\u2019s a great place to grow right now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, he\u2019s keeping an open eye on the horizon. \u201cLet\u2019s see about the future. There\u2019s so much possibility if you know the right people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I push for some concrete vision. \u201cHenry Aschke in ten years?&#8221; He blinks. &#8220;Living in California with his own business.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Study the Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The future belongs to people who think in systems. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/school-science-technology\/programs\/master-in-computer-science-and-business-technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology<\/a> will help you turn technology into strategy and data into power. Across 11 intense months, you\u2019ll learn to see the full picture\u2014how algorithms drive business, how innovation scales, and how technical fluency becomes a leadership edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This program doesn\u2019t slow down for theory. You\u2019ll work on real industry projects with partners shaping global transformation\u2014Google, AWS, Microsoft\u2014and gain hands-on experience with AI, cloud systems, cybersecurity, and quantum computing. Every module builds your ability to move between disciplines: from writing code to writing strategy, from technical design to executive decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And you won\u2019t be doing it alone. You\u2019ll join a global network of builders, analysts and innovators who treat technology as their competitive weapon. The result? Dual mastery across business and computer science\u2014and a career that moves as fast as the industries you\u2019ll redefine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns banner h-banner banner-b is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading banner-title\" id=\"boost-your-career-with-our-master-in-management\">Choose the Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"banner-content\">Want to work in energy analytics at McKinsey like Henry?
