§ The result
Jobvite takes the total, BambooHR takes more of the criteria.
Within the ATS-integrated cohort, Jobvite edges BambooHR by 2 points under rubric v1.0, 45 to 43. BambooHR leads more of the criteria than Jobvite — 4 to 3 — but Bias Audit Transparency, which Jobvite leads, carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to Jobvite. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — BambooHR 28, Jobvite 38 — and at an 18% weight it carries 45% of the weighted advantage Jobvite holds across the 3 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -2.2 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 5.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -2 beside that -2.2.

§ Evidence
Cited sources and documented absences, criterion by criterion.
An absence is a finding, not a blank: the reviewer looked for a named artefact and recorded that it is not located. Where a source sits is a fact about hosting only.
