Just got a job interview for consulting for Capgemini. But it's not in the city I had hoped for, so should I ask to change cities ahead of time or once I get an offer? I don't want to diminish my chances of being considered right off the bat. Any advice is welcomed, thanks.

If you tell them right away, they may move on to the next. But if you go through interviews and you tell them at the end, they may budge

I feel like an idiot. For the past 3 years (26yo now) I have been electing the traditional 401k instead of Roth. I get 25% taken out pretax each paycheck. Given that I’m more likely to have a higher salary (currently 100k now) and therefore be in a higher tax bracket by the time I retire, shouldn’t I have elected Roth this entire time? 😩
