§ The result
Jobma leads Zappyhire on all 7 criteria.
Jobma finishes 15 points clear of Zappyhire under rubric v1.0 — 49 against 34 — across the Video interview and Screening cohorts. Jobma leads every one of the 7 criteria, Zappyhire none of them, and the closest of the 7 is FRIA Support, Jobma 35 to Zappyhire 25. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Jobma 55, Zappyhire 30, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 33% of the weighted advantage Jobma holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Shares are of 15.2 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +15 beside that +15.2.

§ 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.
