If you are creating your post & adding to the queue, the time slot next to your current time would be considered for scheduling your post.

Eg: Here, I have created the first post by 15.00 PM, so it has been scheduled for the 16.00 PM time slot. Next post, I have created and added to the queue scheduled for 21.00 PM time slot and so on.
