Like SkyHigh said the best way to stand out from the pile is to show up on the doorstep. I know most of the 135 operators I worked for 15 to 20 years ago liked to hire inexperienced pilot as freight loaders initially or mechanics/ helpers. It seems to me the requirements for a co-pilot were less about experience and more about being a team player. I was hired into the right seat of a BE-99 in 1981 with 200 hours. Mostly because I was standing there!
Here are some websites:
Bering Air Alaska
Arctic Transportation Services - Home Page
Hageland Aviation Services - Passenger and Cargo Service to rural Alaska - Aircraft Charter Service in Anchorage
Good Luck!
