What would you do in this case? (relevant experience for the Ph.D.)

Hi guys

What would you do in this case? I´m interested in a Ph.D. in Finance, and have the chance to collaborate with research in development economics with a senior economist from a high profile international organization. Even if it´s not directly related to the intended Ph.D., would it tangibly help with the admissions?

Thanks in advance.

From what I've seen on the subject, it sounds like good exp. My reasoning is based upon the assumption research exp., professional or academic, any area, would be a boost to your application. That's what a PhD is all about anyways, research!


I'd go for it!

bauble is almost a TestMagic guru.
My impression (and it's just that):

At worst it can help a bit, with other factors that could make it help a lot:
- The work clearly demonstrates creativity/smarts
- It gets published (duh)
- The guy you're working with is known in the finance academic community
