Base or fixed pay is a good negotiation point, rest of it is all smoke and just confuses you. Ofcourse before accepting offer or during the last few rounds you can ask for breakdown

Great! Thanks for your advise

Base/fixed. Always negotiate there. That's all. That need to be highest

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut. I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?
