§ The result
Employment Hero leads JobDiva on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, Employment Hero (Screening) opens a 19-point lead on JobDiva (ATS-integrated), 48 to 29. JobDiva leads none of the 7 criteria, and Employment Hero is ahead on 5 of them by 20 raw points or more, Article 11 Technical Documentation among them. The advantage Employment Hero holds is spread out: Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Employment Hero 50, JobDiva 28, 20% weight), yet it supplies only 23% of the weighted points Employment Hero gains across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +18.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 18.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +19 beside that +18.8.

§ 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.
