2 - Would you also be able to point me to organizations that may be looking for trainee ISO 27001 auditors to help me acquire the experience I need to become certified?

Answer: Unfortunately that's a difficult question to provide you an answer, because most of the main certification bodies already have their auditors, and always there are more people looking for opportunities than openings for new auditors.
