you may which to bear in mind that the aviation industry is on its knees! 100s of experienced guys are out of work. When things pick up, who do you think will get work. a 5000 hours FO, or a kid who finished oxford 12 months ago, and has flown 5 hours in a cessna since his mcc!
its all about timing, you say you want to do it as soon as possible, WHY!!! so take your time! and good luck!
