Happydance Careers Site GP: The Performance GP Podium winners

The first checkered flag of the 2025 Happydance Careers Sites Grand Prix has waved—and the results are in. 

This wasn’t just a qualifying lap. This was race one. 

The Performance GP is the first of four weekly showdowns, putting over 100 global careers sites to the test across speed, stability, and seamless candidate experiences. And now, the podium has been finalized. 

The Performance GP Podium: 

🥇 Mountain America Credit Union—Climbing from position eight on the starting grid to the winner of our first race! 

🥈 Paddy Power—Delivering a powerful performance to maintain a strong podium position at the end of week one. 
 
🥉 Blip—Charging up the leaderboard to prove their careers site is precision-built to perform. 

Head to the official Careers Site Grand Prix site to see the top 20, the full field, and then follow the leaderboard as the championship progresses. 

Why performance matters 

In a high-stakes hiring market, speed = strength.  

The Performance GP winners have proved what great looks like: fast-loading, friction-free, mobile-optimized experiences that convert passive visitors into active candidates. But the Happydance GP doesn’t stop here.  

The Performance GP is our first race of four. Here’s what’s coming down the track:  

• Accessibility GP (May 19–23) – Inclusive design, built for every candidate 
• Best Practices GP (May 26–30) – Craft, code quality, and experience standards 
• SEO GP (June 2–6) – Visibility, discoverability, and search dominance 

 
Each week, we’ll reveal new podium winners, spotlight high-performers, and shake up the leaderboard. Points awarded each week will feed into the overall standings for the Careers Site Champion, crowned June 13, 2025. 

And yes—there are still four VIP Silverstone tickets up for grabs.
