§ The result
HiBob leads micro1 on 6 of the 7 criteria.
HiBob sits 10 points above micro1 under rubric v1.0 — 46 against 36 — with HiBob filed under ATS-integrated and micro1 under Screening. HiBob leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so micro1 is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 HiBob leads is Article 11 Technical Documentation, HiBob 55 to micro1 50. The advantage HiBob holds is spread out: Post-Market Monitoring is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (HiBob 47, micro1 25, 12% weight), yet it supplies only 25% of the weighted points HiBob gains across the 6 criteria it leads.

1.0 weighted points to HiBob
Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +10.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 10.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +10 beside that +10.5.

§ 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.
