Transition to Turbine

Have'nt posted for awhile, however I check the website atleast once a week. I am doing alot of reading on the aviation feild because in the next few months I need to decide either to do get a masters degree or persue an aviation career (I currently have PPL-170 hrs)

I have'nt come across much information on how pilots transition from Prop aircrafts to Turbine aircraft. Basically every turbine aircraft job avaiable requires 500 hrs of turbine experience. How do pilots transition between the two types. Are there school for this, any recommendation on flight school. Say if I have 2000TT and 1000hrs on mutli-engine navajo, would I be considered for a turbine job.
