Check out the cargo section of these forums. Some of the lower tier less desirable places to work may very well take you at 1500 hours. You could find yourself in a 747 or 767 doing international trips. However, it'd be better to go the regional route and then eventually to a major where you could get some international time.
Go to the safety forum and read about the Atlas Crash near Houston. Scroll down and look at the Copilot's work history. That's why I say you could probably get on with a carrier like that, question is would you want to?
