It depends on how long the job takes, and what the requirements are.
They did seem to imply they want to wait 60 seconds between the end of
one run to the start of the next one, as opposed to running every 60
seconds regardless.
If the job takes 45 seconds, it could be a pretty substantial semantic
difference.
