I agree with pretty much everything said here. Really research the FCs you're joining and make sure they're the type of FC you want. How active do they say they are? Do they host any public RP events or their own private ones, and how frequent are they? Try to attend these events and see for yourself how often they roleplay and in what style, etc. You can also browse their websites and see how active their forums are and that sort of thing.Â
Also try to make friends OOC within the company, either by joining the company's voice chat or running those dungeons when asked. By being friendly people will simply want to interact with you more, I've find jumping on discord has led to ramblings about roleplay and my characters and people join in and what do you know, we end up with plans for a new plot.
As for recommendations, I know a few. I've always enjoyed RPing with Jackal and Hide's lot, and my crew also have friends in Ebonbrand. Then there's also mine if you like Skypirates!
