When I became a CFI (a decade after my private and instrument) I began learning how much I didn’t know. Best decision I made. It’s humbling and worth it. Also amazing how many doors open and airplanes become available when you hold that card. Getting some mission based flying in a 91/135 gig is important too imo. ADM on a multi leg trip with time constraints, weight and fuel calculations, weather, etc. is valuable. If professional flying is your goal I think instructing should be part of your path. My $.02

Everyone looking for the easiest path... Do Both. Get your CFI cert and instruct for a few hundred hours. Then when you have 800-1,000 hours look for a 91/135 gig that suits you. Do that for a year and you'll have your 1,500 hours along with some good experience; both from instructing and from some all-weather turbine time. You'll be well prepared to succeed thru any regional training program and begin your career flying jets.
