§ The result
BrightHire leads Qureos on all 7 criteria.
BrightHire finishes 18 points clear of Qureos inside the Screening cohort under rubric v1.0: 51 against 33. BrightHire leads every one of the 7 criteria, Qureos none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Human Oversight Design, BrightHire 60 to Qureos 54. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (BrightHire 50, Qureos 12, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 38% of the weighted advantage BrightHire holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Shares are of 18.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +18 beside that +18.1.

§ 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.
