Depends on the job. No matter what, it would probably require 1200TT at a minimum unless you could get on someplace as an F/O in larger equipment (that requires an F/O).
Most better paying freight jobs (FedEx feeders, jets) will require more than 1200. They are around though- I got lucky and got a freight job with 1,201 hours in my logbook that paid double a first year regional F/O salary. That is by far the exception, though- and the amount of work was almost not worth the pay.
To the original poster- try IFL Group out of Pontiac, MI. They fly Convairs, Falcons, and 727's. I've heard they hire pretty low time Convair F/O's. Maybe not quite as low as you have, but the worst they can say is no. Don't have their contact info here in front of me, so you'll have to Google them. Not sure if they're hiring anymore either, haven't been around that area in awhile. I would guess not, but their peak season will start around the end of April and they'll probably be looking soon.
