§ The result
Textkernel leads HireLogic on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, Textkernel (Sourcing) opens a 17-point lead on HireLogic (Video interview), 51 to 34. Of the 7 criteria HireLogic wins none, and the narrowest lead Textkernel holds is on FRIA Support, HireLogic 25 to Textkernel 32. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — HireLogic 15, Textkernel 55 — and at an 18% weight it carries 43% of the weighted advantage Textkernel holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -16.6 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 16.6 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -17 beside that -16.6.

§ 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.
