Hey,

New to EVE Online. Wanted to know if there are any corps that help noobs get on their feet that I could join. Not really sure what I need to do in game, i guess i need a buddy to say the least haha.

TL:DR version = Eve university among hundreds of others.

Long version.

There are hundreds of corporations in EVE that will take on new players, try your luck on one of the following parts of EVE:

1.) Recruitment forum part (though I believe you can't post on there as a trial account)
2.) Ingame channel for recruitment, it's called 'recruitment' (how obvious)
3.) Ingame corporation search engine, it allows to look for corp in certain parts of EVE and also has the ability to tick the "Accept new players" option.

Other then that I would suggest, run the tutorials and career agents (and maybe even the Sisters of EVE epic arc) to find out what kind of "profession" you like to do (keep in mind it can be multiple) and then search for corps that do the same things you like and take on new players. Those people can (and likely will) help you with any questions you have, and as you do like the same thing the corp does they can likely help you out if stuck or even take you along to help you get on your way more easily.

EVE Univesity is one of the most famous corporations in EVE online, their only part of existing is to teach new players everything there is to know about EVE Online. They are a good first step into learning the ways of EVE Online in general.

Hello there and welcome to EVE Big smile

As J'poll mentioned Eve universty is a good place to start,but there is a lot of corps out there that will accept young players.
I will admit im not 100% sure on weather or not trial accounts are allowed to post in the recruitment section of the forums,and even if im rather sure you cant,this is something i hope CCP will change at some point.

In the meantime you can read over this thread which contains a basic guide on how to find a corp,ad also contains a lot of useful tips on what to look out for and what you should do when trying to find a corp.

If you use "%" sign anywhere in message, linking in same message will not work. That bug has been there since these new forums were introduced.
