They had me code a bagel sorting algorithm from scratch in Fortran. It was pretty easy and I used my Fortran skills and wizard sticks to impress them!

The interview process was extremely unorganized and more difficult than it should've been. I would recommend everyone to not waste their time because they are looking for someone to overwork with minimal pay. The way they parted the interviewees at the final interview was brutal and reminded me of picking teams during elementary school soccer.
