I would just use Make, or write a checkpoint file for each step, and wrap them all in if statements so they don't run if their checkpoint is there.

Or, if I were doing it from scratch, I would not have a bash script that takes days to run, that sounds like some Real Programming, and I'd do it in Python, where it's easier to manage complexity, in case there was some more fine grained caching that could be done, maybe even between runs.

Maybe I need to make another coffee or something but I really don't understand at all why they wanted Goto for this.
