That's not what the interview process is like at all.
They're more interested in how you approach real world issues (the questions I got asked were conceivably real-life issues a company like Google would face with its products). If you can solve that issue by applying efficient and well understood data structures and algorithms, then that indicates you understand the problem space and solutions that may apply.
It's not like they get you in a room and ask you to draw a linked list or a binary tree.
