iCIMS sits 13 points above Recruitee under rubric v1.0, 55 against 42, with both filed under ATS-integrated. iCIMS leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Recruitee is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 iCIMS leads is Post-Market Monitoring, iCIMS 42 to Recruitee 40.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +12.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 12.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +13 beside that +12.8.

§ 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.
