§ The result
LinkedIn Recruiter leads Xobin on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, LinkedIn Recruiter, filed under Sourcing, finishes on 57 and Xobin, filed under Assessment, on 50, 7 points apart. LinkedIn Recruiter takes all 7 criteria from Xobin without a 20-point raw gap on any of them; the closest is FRIA Support, LinkedIn Recruiter 38 to Xobin 35.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +6.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 6.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +7 beside that +6.5.
