Honestly an official guild isn't practical for many reasons. Here is my suggestion:-
For a guildless person, the Guild tab under Social must display a list of guilds that are open for recruitment. They can scroll through, find and apply to join a guild they like.
From the guild's side, you can choose to list your Guild under this tab (similar to listing your House for the Arlorian Home Show).
Guilds must be given the option to set requirements, in terms of aps, pve, etc. They can also set requirements to none, which will allow newbies to join their guild with ease.
This type of system is prevalent in many RPGs that support a guild/clan system.
With this in place, new players will no longer have to scourge the ends of the game for days to end up in a half-dead guild. Cheers.
