Someone in my program had a father who was in a Nobel prize winning team. She never mentioned it in the job market but somehow one of her interviewers found out and they gave her the job. The Nobel was not in Economics either, and her father didn't win the Nobel, he was just on a team that won it (i.e. he wrote the paper it was given for, but was one of over 10 people who wrote that paper, the two leaders won it). I think that it would be quite reasonable to put it on your CV. After all, if a nobel prize winner cites you, it must be quite solid work, ie a very strong credential. This should definetely help gain some respect in the profession. Yeah, its good that anyone cites you, maybe, maybe marginally better if it is a nobel prize winner. But it seems kind of presumptious to mention on your CV... I think that it would be quite reasonable to put it on your CV.
