Server

Are you looking for a job that ACTUALLY values you, your hard work and shows that appreciation with advancement? How would you like to be part of a winning team in a fast-paced, fast-growing organization that’s on a mission to change one MILLION lives per year in NYC? We're looking to elevate the world views of Korean American restaurants and continue to create our own path. If you want to be a part of the A team, and maybe even lead your own team one day – KEEP READING. This isn’t a regular burger joint, this isn’t a doughnut shop, and we aren't a hole in the wall joint. We’re doing something different here – we’re always looking to improve, always striving to get better, and we’re looking for the right people to join us.

The rest of the world calls this a minimum wage job, but we call you the most important person in our organization! P.S. (We also pay more than minimum wage!)

While we do serve burgers and tots, we're much more than that and so is our team! Our ideal team member takes initiative, loves to make our guests smile and puts 110% into everything they do. Not only that, our team members have opportunities to grow, both personally and professionally. Nowon refuses to settle for anything less than extraordinarily high standards but we believe for the right person, extraordinarily high standards are their normal. If you’re the right person for this job, you wouldn’t consider doing anything less.

Does your boss take you for granted? Are you starving for an opportunity to take on new challenges? Are you ready to see what you can accomplish in a fast-paced environment where being a tiny bit fanatical is a good thing? Are you ready to join an organization that eats passion for breakfast and leaves mediocrity in the trash?

If you’re self motivated, self disciplined, love being in a rapidly evolving work environment and want to be part of a dynamic team that thrives on building relationships with our guests, each other, and the community, then we want to hear from you!

We’re on a mission to change the landscape of the USA by leading a revolution of fun & delicious Korean-American food & drinks. Our goal is to change 1 million lives per year through our locations in NYC & Brooklyn.
