At this stage, unless you have a VERY VERY VERY STRONG reference, you won't get inducted into a big4 firm.
Smaller firms maybe ready to take you. Download the ICAP list of firms & SBP list of A rated firms.
Visit the firms personally & insist on meeting the manager responsible for hiring, if possible.

Go prepared with accounting basics, give the manager good impression that you are eager to learn & can accept the challenge.
Follow up regularly if they say that they'll call you for interview.
And lastly, if you get hired be ready for late sittings!!
