Best advice, keep instructing, fly skydivers or tow banners on the weekends, etc. Just do whatever you can to get your time up. The first 1,500 hours is always the hardest to get.

It's not a Cirrus position, but Pacific Wings flies Caravans under several names across the country for EAS contracts in addition to the Hawaii flying. Might be able to get on right seat or something with about 500TT.

I got hired flying a Cirrus for a rich guy at 800TT. Insurance has remained at about 7K per year. The insurance company didn't seem to squeal too much, at least not this one.

I saw an ad for a Cirrus pilot a couple of times. The guy is out of Ohio. I think I saw it on a pilot job website, but it could have been a more general one.

I have quite a bit of Cirrus time, and have flown many different owners under their open pilot clause. Most require a minimum of 750 hours total time and 100 to 200 hours in type for an SR22. SR20s are usually less time. You can get named for a fee, and many owners don't mind doing that if they need a pilot. They pay the fee. Keep networking and something will come up.

Where are you located? Are you looking for an instructor position, or just pilot?

Ok. There is a place in Atlanta out of KPDK that supplies pilots for Cirrus owners, etc... I am not sure what there minimums are. When you can pm, send me one and I will send you their name. I think you need 25 posts to pm.
