If you’re in college, the only market research tool you provably have access to is Bloomberg Terminal. You can use the M&A screener- search MA and hit enter, put in your criteria such as deal size, industry, etc., and then output a column for financial advisor.
CapIQ and FactSet are best for this but I’m assuming you’re in college and might not have those?
A lot of the tools other people mention work well but are costly out of pocket. I personally have a lot of success just by searching keywords such as "bank name" + "financial advisor" and also "press release". If you just want to have a deal to talk about in interviews this way is sufficent.

CapIQ is free for students actually
Really? Wasn’t aware of that tbh- wish I knew when I was in college
MergerLinks is good for this.
I've spotted some inconsistencies / mistakes on MergerLinks a couple of times tho
Some unis give you access to Cap IQ or Refinitv, check your library website or ask someone. You might also have access to Bloomberg terminals.
