Once you achieve that rank, go to every city state and become a recruit on the Grand Companies by doing their quests until you get these quests:
Till Sea Swallows All (Maelstrom)
Serenity, Purity, Sanctity (Twin Adder)
By Fire Reborn (Eternal Flames)
These are the GC speech quests, which you must do in every city-state too.
When you're done with all these quests, you should choose one of the grand companies to pledge allegiance.
You'll be given a new quest from the grand company of your choice and by the end of this quest you'll become a Private Third Class which will enable you to buy a chocobo for 3000 seals.
Grand Company Seals can be obtained in many ways (Grand Company leves, Caravan Security, Quests...)
Hope this helped.
+1 for this post, and -1 for everyone else -_-

Thank you for this, I've been wondering how to get a personal choco - been too busy for it, this will be helpful, thanks.
