I recently did a remote interview via webex (not with FB, but with a big-ish tech company) so they could see my screen. It was for a full-stack-ish type job, although they asked me to do some questions in javascript. They said to "do what you normally do."
So I switched screens and googled it. Same for the docs for a few libraries that made things work (like the python csv module).
I not only got an offer, but I was told right up front "your google fu is strong."
I'd almost want to be looking for someone who does research on these problems. Reinventing the wheel is the classic engineering mistake.
