What does up to £35K OTE uncapped earnings mean?

Question

I see this kind of statement a lot, is it not a contridiction. Surley £35K is the cap.

Can anyone explain.

Thanks

Answer 1

no this is usually for a sales job.

example you get a basic wage of £18k and they say you can

earn up to 38k - this maybe an average or the topsellers wage. if you are really good your earnings are not capped

so in theory you could earn £50k.

however don't be afraid to ask for statistics- as to how much

most people earn and to see them in writing.

you may of course earn a lot less

ote - on target earnings
