REQUIREMENTS:
At Viva Karaoke x Studios, our success is built on more than music, drinks, and entertainmentit is built on the culture and standards we uphold every day. The WONGWAY represents the principles that guide how we operate, how we treat our guests, and how we support one another as a team. It all began with the vision of Henry Wong, introducing the Karaoke experience from China to the market in the United States. He took over what used to be called Limelight Stage and Studios, creating a pretty well recognized name for the business in the city of Boston. With Boston being a melting pot, what better way to achieve the goal of bringing people together than through music! He then went on to create Stage Karaoke x Studio, the first karaoke business in the Wong Guys Hospitality line. Wong Guys went on to open a new karaoke Venue called "Viva Karaoke". Viva Karaoke x Studios is the flagship nightlife concept of Wong Guys Group. A destination experience that reinvents the traditional karaoke bar into something refined, youthful, bold, bright, and urban. The venue features a full bar with state-of-the-art LED panels, intricate light shows, private karaoke Studios, and a Main Stage that transforms on weekends into a true nightclub atmosphere.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
