If even 10% of the applicants are qualified, they are offering too much. ECON 101. Of course, they might not be offering very much too much — it’s not always obvious what price is enough to get enough supply of something.
They aren't offering too much. This is a competitive rate for LRV operators when you compare other systems. TTC drivers start at $25/hr for the first 12 months rising to $32/hour after 24 months. $62,000-$65,000 is well within the salary range that is competitive with other transit agencies.
