If I ever find a good low-sec corp that doesn't require a retardedly long and difficult application process I'd like to get into low-sec full time. If any friendly, casual, low sec PvP corps would have me while requiring nothing more of me than voice comms and a full API, please shoot me a message here or in game.

EVE Uni is the epitome of a retardedly long and difficult application process. Very few corps will be like that. Most low-sec pirates like us don't enjoy recruitment and do exactly as you say - API check and a TS interview and then you're in or out.

The biggest concern for you will be whether or not they have support for new players. There are a ton of newbro friendly corps out there, but also plenty which are not. For instance, my corp isn't anti-newbro per say, but I can tell you from experience that it's not the ideal place for a new player to learn the ropes. You really need a group that will let you participate but also one that has individuals with the drive and the patience to help you out. Your own enthusiasm will go a long way in this regard. I will go way out of my way to help out an eager newbro....but whiney/needy people are going to get the cold shoulder.

Have a look through the recruitment forum and see if anything jumps out at you. If you can't find anything there, don't fret. Many of the best corps don't push recruitment hard but find their members through word-of-mouth or run-ins in-game. If you tool around in low-sec enough you will meet some interesting people, and if you show enough interest it's likely one of your killers will take you under their wing.

Everyone likes a graceful loser. IMO it should be a prereq for recruitment.

Created the account over a year ago but only became active about 4 months ago and then now for 3 weeks. So far in total 2 months of skills training.

In those 2 months I have killed guys in ships a lot bigger than mine solo. (How to link that here?) I am declaring wars and finding it exceedingly easy. I have already created a second account just for scouting.

The waiting game you say? only if you choose it to be. I just finished training for my first Battlecruiser. Cannot wait to see what kind of havoc I can cause in this.
