§ The result
Jobvite leads Personio by 5 points.
Jobvite scores 45 and Personio 40 under rubric v1.0 — a 5-point gap inside the ATS-integrated cohort. Jobvite leads 5 of the 7 criteria, including Bias Audit Transparency, while Personio leads 1, including Post-Market Monitoring, and 1 is level. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Jobvite 38, Personio 25, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 37% of the weighted advantage Jobvite holds across the 5 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +5.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 7.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +5 beside that +5.1.

§ 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.
