Do they ask this in IBD interviews?

Came across the dividend discount model and am having a hard trouble understanding what it exactly is and how it can be useful (seems like banks are applicable in this case). I've looked it up but I would love an explanation as to how it pertains to IBD and how much I need to know about it. What type of questions are asked about the DDM for IBD interviews?
