I got my first fulltime job when I had about 1000hours...that does not necessarily mean that you do not get a job with fewer hours. But you have to have your eyes and ears open like spy. Networking and driving around worldwide, where applicable, might be a possibility to generate a few leads for future opportunities. Do not settle for anything specific...grab the opportunity to build hours/experience if you do not have to spend too much of your financial resources. And at last, Do not listen to the negative people in this industry telling you that it is impossible to get a job. It is possible but with with difficulties...
From my personal experience; I have been unemployed a few times but always came back. And I resent the negative and disturbing comments of some other folks. Having that said...DO NOT GIVE UP...if you really want to make a career flying helicopters
