§ The result
HiringBranch leads JobDiva on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, HiringBranch (Assessment) opens a 23-point lead on JobDiva (ATS-integrated), 52 to 29. JobDiva leads none of the 7 criteria, and HiringBranch is ahead on 3 of them by 20 raw points or more, Bias Audit Transparency among them. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (HiringBranch 60, JobDiva 15, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 35% of the weighted advantage HiringBranch 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 +23.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 23.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +23 beside that +23.4.

§ 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.
