§ The result
4 points separate Indeed and HackerEarth.
Indeed (Sourcing) edges HackerEarth (Assessment) by 4 points under rubric v1.0, 50 to 46. Indeed leads 6 of the 7 criteria, including FRIA Support, while HackerEarth leads 1, including Post-Market Monitoring. Human Oversight Design is the widest raw gap (HackerEarth 56, Indeed 63) but not the heaviest weighted swing, which is FRIA Support at 15% (HackerEarth 32, Indeed 38), 21% of the weighted advantage Indeed builds across the 6 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -4.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 4.6 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -4 beside that -4.1.

§ 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.
