As an international student, I understand the struggle. However, I do know two people who were the first international student that their specific firm ever sponsored so it is possible! PM me and maybe I can give you some tips!
My visa expires in October 2020 and my vac scheme would end mid July 2020. I think it's cutting it pretty close to apply for the LPC and extend my visa within 2 months.

Hi Alice, I completely understand why this is devastating and how you may feel "not good enough". However, I think you should reflect upon your accomplishments. You conquered every step of the way until the AC for a firm that could arguably be #1 in the entire world! That is so huge!! You were...
After SO many rejections, I finally received my first AC invite for Eversheds Sutherland!! This feels so surreal. If anyone could give me any tips or suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it!! :)
