§ The result
SHL leads AmazingHiring on 6 of the 7 criteria.
SHL sits 14 points above AmazingHiring under rubric v1.0 — 51 against 37 — with SHL filed under Assessment and AmazingHiring under Sourcing. SHL leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so AmazingHiring is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 SHL leads is Post-Market Monitoring, AmazingHiring 33 to SHL 40. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (AmazingHiring 22, SHL 50, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 36% of the weighted advantage SHL holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -13.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 13.9 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -14 beside that -13.9.
