§ The result
HiredScore leads CoderPad by 10 points.
HiredScore, filed under Sourcing, comes out 10 points above CoderPad, filed under Assessment: 52 against 42 under rubric v1.0. HiredScore leads 6 of the 7 criteria, including Bias Audit Transparency, while CoderPad leads 1, including Post-Market Monitoring. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — CoderPad 20, HiredScore 55 — and at an 18% weight it carries 56% of the weighted advantage HiredScore holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -10.2 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 12.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -10 beside that -10.2.

§ 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.
