§ The result
Findem leads TalentLens on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Findem sits 12 points above TalentLens under rubric v1.0 — 58 against 46 — with Findem filed under Sourcing and TalentLens under Assessment. Findem leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so TalentLens is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Findem leads is Human Oversight Design, Findem 60 to TalentLens 57. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (Findem 83, TalentLens 45) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 58% of the weighted advantage Findem holds across the 6 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +11.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 11.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +12 beside that +11.8.

§ 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.
