§ The result
HackerRank leads Recruit CRM on all 7 criteria.
HackerRank finishes 15 points clear of Recruit CRM under rubric v1.0 — 55 against 40 — across the Assessment and ATS-integrated cohorts. Of the 7 criteria Recruit CRM wins none, and the narrowest lead HackerRank holds is on FRIA Support, HackerRank 35 to Recruit CRM 34. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (HackerRank 68, Recruit CRM 20) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 58% of the weighted advantage HackerRank holds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +14.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 14.9 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +15 beside that +14.9.

§ 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.
