§ The result
SHL takes the total, Oracle Recruiting takes more of the criteria.
SHL (Assessment) edges Oracle Recruiting (ATS-integrated) by 2 points under rubric v1.0, 51 to 49. Oracle Recruiting leads more of the criteria than SHL — 4 to 1 — but Bias Audit Transparency, which SHL leads, carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to SHL. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Oracle Recruiting 30, SHL 50 — and at an 18% weight it carries 100% of the weighted advantage SHL holds across the 1 criterion on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 5 figures above sum to -2.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 5.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -2 beside that -2.1.

§ 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.
