No offense to the OP, but please god get a few months in as FO before taking a capt position at any regional with jets. Being "captain ready" wont be possible with that large of a gap in flying and proficiency.
In fact, with all these "quick upgrades" for guys with 1000 recent 121 tprop only time, has already led to problems. Lots of prop captains jumping ship, or being dispalced to jets (skywest) and shady things are happening because of it. You have been gone for a while and proficiency will be lacking at least a decent ammount, and therefor being captain right off the bat is a bad idea. These aircraft are no turbo props. The E175 and CRJ will eat you alive with a tprop mentalitly.
