How to run every 25 seconds in Quartz scheduler?

I am using the Quartz Scheduling API for Java. Could you help me to run every 25 seconds using cron-expression. It's just a delay. It does not have to start always at second 0. For example, the sequence is like this: 0:00, 0:25, 0:50, 1:15, 1:40, 2:05, etc until minute 5 when the sequence begins again at second 0. Thank you.

I don't think cron expression will allow you to do that, but you can use

SimpleScheduleBuilder.repeatSecondlyForever( 25 )

as 300 (5 minutes) is a multiple of 25 it will repeat automatically.
