"Most important"? Have fun with that. Life is too short to spend time memorizing the answers to over-the-top tech questions for some chance to work for a company no one has heard of (and isn't producing tech near the scale of interview knowledge they require).

One thing that I think is worth noting here -- this guy isn't from a university where he would have learned this, and likely hasn't spent a lot of time using or understanding data structures (unlike "the rest of us"). He's just out of a code camp, studying these sorts of things make sense in that situation. I'd hope someone more experienced wouldn't need to.
