When doctors draw blood, they can test for a huge amount of problems. Anything from cholesterol, certain cancers, HIV/AIDs, white blood count, etc.
A doctor needs to order a specific test for whatever they are trying to find. If a doctor did not order an HIV test on your blood, the technicians would not look for it.
If you are interested in finding out if you have HIV/AIDs, blood tests are not the only way. A simple cheek swab can also be used for the test. You can get free tests at a local clinic, or as your doctor for more advice.

They have to perform a specific test in order to find it; it's not something that they would just "happen to notice".
