Definitely, I got hired at FedEx with a C-130 type rating out of the Marines. Plus, if your unit will let you get a FAA examiner to give it to you on a check ride. There are guys out there who are qualified to do it. It will save you a ton of money and you are flying an aircraft you are familiar with.
