Type rating
I have exactly the same question than you. As far as I know this is better to have a type rating, I would say that with it you are almost sure to get a job or you have certainely more chances but it does not mean that without it you cannot get a job.

CRJ Type Rating + Providers
Hi to you all,
I´d like some help! As the title says, I´m looking for TRTO:s that offer type ratings (JAA) on the CRJ200/700/900. Also, any tips and comments from someone who´s done the course would be highly appreciated.
Thanx in advance!

Hi,
I did a TR in Montreal with Bombardier3 month ago (it was not for the CRJ) - but you get excellent books and CD´s - you can call the instructors any time.
I heard that they do the CRJ as a CBT course. But everybody seems to be happy.
By the way - In Berlin are also Sims for the CRJ. They are owned by Lufthansa Flight Training. Maybe ask there or Flugschule Berlin.
Good luck

No one pays for a 500 hr jet time. You slowly progress in the aviation field, start off flying twins props, move onto a bigger twin. When accumulated about 2000TT and about 500 Twin hours, a regional carrier if lucky a nation carrier would hire you for a turbine craft, on which they will pay the training for you.

May be in Canada but not in Europe anymore. That's was the normal path a couple of years ago. Nowon in Europe nobody would give your first chance on a turbo prop if you don't have t/r of that aircraft and better if hours on type too or many hours of multi-engine. Even then you are not sure to have the job.
For learjet have a look in USA web-site I think overthere you should find some opportunites.
Cheers
