Haha amazingly there’s a chance I interviewed you, or you interviewed with my company when we were first rolling this out, or another company was also using the same question. I remember the idea was to make the analog like one of those analogs that didn’t move continuously but ticked at every sixty second interval. So it never needed to be in between minute ticks.
Lots of us didn’t fully understand the question when we were giving it initially and it caused a lot of problems. I’m guessing you had the minute hand drawn as if it moved continuously since you mention seconds.
Let me apologize for either myself or my company :)
