The Big 4 firms really want/need people with that kind of skill set Business Advisory, I'm told.

what about in terms of employment? would it be better having 2 degrees or 1 year of exp?

Again, it depends on the industry and the double degree pair.

Just to put an example on this: I do Computer Science/Maths which is good for job prospect because there is a LOT of maths in computing.
And there isn't enough maths in just plain Computer Science.  :(

it depends on what you want to do, but if i were an employer, i'd like to see some breadth and not just competency in the technical skills. there was a good article in the AFR today about it too.
