Submitting to a very new not very well regarded journal - worth it?

R

Hi all,

I'm currently in the 9th month of my PhD. I saw a call for papers a couple of months back for a new journal (only one previous issue) published by an institution in Romania - they say it is peer reviewed. I submitted my MA thesis just on the offchance and they accepted it. It is on a subject that i'm not pursuing in for my Ph.D, and the institution that the journal is based at is probabaly relatively unknown/doesn't have much prestige.

I thought i'd just put it forward anyway to have something on my CV next to publications, as i've presented at a couple of conferences but nothing published yet.

Is this likely to make a different when it comes to TA positions etc?
