Alright, here's what you'll need then. First, you'll need at least two, preferably three, characters with the "Throw Rock" ability (You can get it cheaply with squires). You'll also want at least one character that knows how to use items, especially potions and phoenix downs. If any of your characters has 300 Job Points available for the Squire class, teach them "Accumulate." It is, bar none, the cheapest and quickest way to level in the game. All of the characters you want to level up should get this ASAP, so if anyone lacks the job points needed, get into a few random battles with them as squires until they reach 300, then buy Accumulate. Once all five characters have it, convert them into whatever job you want to level up, but make sure their secondary skill is the Squire's class ability (it's name escapes me, but it lets you use Accumulate, which is all that matters).
Now, get into a random battle in the Plains level (the one next to your starting city). If you see at least one yellow chocobo amongst the enemy, you're good to go. If not, restart and keep trying until you get into such a battle. Kill all of the enemies EXCEPT that chocobo, then corner the chocobo somewhere so it can't escape. Using one or two characters, use the Throw Rock ability, or other weak attacks, to weaken it, BUT MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T DIE. When it's weakened, it'll cure itself and any characters next to it, so you'll have enough free healing to take whatever attacks it uses.
For the characters who aren't pestering the chocobo, use "Accumulate" every turn. Don't have them move or do anything else unless absolutely necessary. Every time you do this, they automatically gain 10 EXP and 10 Job Points. Keep doing this until you get as many job points as you want with that class, or until you're bored. With this method, you'll be gaining a level with each character every two minutes, tops, and the EXP never decreases, so you can go up to level 99 if you have lots of patience. Personally, I recommend stopping when you accumulate enough job points to unlock the stronger classes (Lancer, Calculator, Dancer, Ninja), then ending the battle, switching classes, and starting all over again, but it's up to you. Keep on leveling until you feel you're high enough (you can beat the game around level 40 with ease, for what it's worth). And that's that. Let me know if you have any questions, or if you want to know how to beat the hardest boss in the game with ease.
