§ The result
Jobma leads Ceipal on all 7 criteria.
Jobma sits 14 points above Ceipal under rubric v1.0 — 49 against 35 — with Jobma filed under Video interview and Ceipal under ATS-integrated. Jobma leads every one of the 7 criteria, Ceipal none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Post-Market Monitoring, Ceipal 38 to Jobma 44. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Ceipal 30, Jobma 55, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 34% of the weighted advantage Jobma holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -14.7 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 14.7 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 -14.7.

§ 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.
