§ The result
HighMatch leads RecruitBot on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, HighMatch, filed under Assessment, finishes on 43 and RecruitBot, filed under Sourcing, on 37, 6 points apart. RecruitBot is ahead on none of the 7 criteria: HighMatch takes 6, the remaining criterion is level, and the nearest of those 6 is FRIA Support, HighMatch 30 to RecruitBot 27. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (HighMatch 45, RecruitBot 33, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 38% of the weighted advantage HighMatch holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +6.3 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 6.3 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +6 beside that +6.3.

§ 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.
