Facebook SWE phone interview, can you use anything for reference?

Anyone have any information on how the Facebook phone round goes. Can I use anything for a reference? I know it’s a 2 problem leetcode type questions. They say no compiler and need to provide test cases. Anyone have any information to share? It’s much appreciated.

It's not allowed. It's pretty obvious to us if you are using external references during the interview .

Hmm good to know, I was considering like a simple one page cheat sheet just to try to eliminate some silly mistakes that may occur under pressure, hopefully if I practice a few hours a day from now till then I won’t have to worry as much

If you need a cheat sheet, then an onsite won't go so well. Keep that in mind.

Fair enough, that’s kinda what I was thinking anyway, I’m just gonna practice leetcode a few hours a day and see how it goes

Good luck, man. Same boat as you. (not SWE position, (Solutions Engineer) but similar interview process)

Good to know. I’m trying to get more practice in before applying to Uber or google, I wasn’t thinking when I applied for Facebook and they immediately wanted to schedule a call. So I’m just gonna try my best for Facebook and hope to get practice in before I apply to more big names
