A lot of us have. You really need to take in one of the job fairs such as ERAU where you can speak with different hiring managers, only to have them tell you that without jet and glass time, your chances are slim. The 1000 TPIC box is being replaced by the 500 hrs jet time box, and similarly the mid-size to large jet type rating box. I did find one job that wanted a boat load of PT-6 time, fwiw.
