§ The result
Paylocity leads JobDiva on all 7 criteria.
Paylocity sits 14 points above JobDiva under rubric v1.0, 43 against 29, with both filed under ATS-integrated. Paylocity is ahead of JobDiva on all 7 criteria but on none of them by as much as 20 raw points, the closest being FRIA Support at JobDiva 22 to Paylocity 30. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (JobDiva 15, Paylocity 33, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 23% of the weighted advantage Paylocity 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 -14.0 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 14.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -14 beside that -14.0.

§ 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.
