§ The result
hireEZ leads RecruitBot by 5 points.
hireEZ scores 42 and RecruitBot 37 under rubric v1.0 — a 5-point gap inside the Sourcing cohort. RecruitBot takes 2 of the 7 criteria, FRIA Support among them, against 5 for hireEZ, whose share includes Data Governance Disclosure. The advantage hireEZ holds is spread out: Data Governance Disclosure is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (hireEZ 60, RecruitBot 48, 15% weight), yet it supplies only 33% of the weighted points hireEZ gains across the 5 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +4.9 — 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 +5 beside that +4.9.

§ 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.
