§ The result
HackerEarth and Korn Ferry tie at 46.
HackerEarth and Korn Ferry tie at 46 under rubric v1.0 inside the Assessment cohort, arriving there from different criteria. HackerEarth leads 4 of the 7 criteria and Korn Ferry 2, with 1 level, yet the two totals land on the same number. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (HackerEarth 35, Korn Ferry 48) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 80% of the weighted advantage Korn Ferry holds across the 2 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +0.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 6.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads 0 beside that +0.1.

§ 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.
