I'd like to become a mercenary, so I have a few questions I'd like to ask the community. Will you guide me on my journey ahead of me?
My idea of a mercenary is a person who is in a corporation of many other mercenaries, similar to a PMC in the real world. One who is hired by a different corporation, probably an industry type corporation, to do work for them, such as defending ships from pirates and such.
In EVE Online, is the job of a mercenary same as a bounty hunter? When one asks for a bounty hunter, are they asking for a mercenary at the same time? Are bounty hunters and mercenary considered the same thing? Is mercenary another word for bounty hunter and vice versa? You get my drift...
There are many skills in EVE Online, however many of the skills have very little use or is useless to a mercenary. My idea of a mercenary is a straight forward fighter. So which skills should I spend my points into? Should I ignore some Gunnery skills or are all skills in Gunnery valuable to a mercenary? Which skill categories should be my primary (Gunnery, Engineering, Missile Operations, etc.)? What should my primary stats be? Should attributes should I never put points into? I do not wish to waste any skill points or stat points on things that will be useless to me, I do not wish to make mistakes. Get my drift?
Are there any expert mercenaries out there than can tutor and aid me to become a true mercenary? I hear Darth Solo(?) is someone like an expert, is he still around?
What kind of items regardless of cost should I get? What types of ships? Caldari is the best race, right? Which bloodline is the best? Military section after that, right? Then should I be a soldier or part of the special ops?
Is there any guide out there for newbies to read so they can become an ultimate mercenary?
Please post any valuable information a mercenary should know. Anything is fine.
Thank you EVE community.

Your idea of a mercenary is basically correct for EVE.
The bounty system is kinda broken at the moment, so I doubt there are many, if any, actual bounty hunters.
As far as help/advice I can't help much there. Here is a link to mercenary corps though. Linkage

I suggest you get around doing what seems fun to you in the short term untill you've had fun for around a month or so, then you'll have more of an idea what you want.

reroll gallente, train for a cruiser, and then focus on learning skills.
You want willpower and perception. Never put points in charisma. the other 2 are helpful.. some.
You wont be powerful for a while, you need to train skills, and even more important, learn some tactics.
Convo me ingame if you want to know more.

A mercenary is someone who does any kind of job if he is well paid by. A bounty hunter is a guy who makes his live for free, doing what he wants, and not depending on others, and he gains his life hunting some ppl with bounty on him, or making anything wich gives him a nice bounty :)
A mercenary is not a bounty hunter, and vice versa...
