§ The result
ZipRecruiter leads Qureos on all 7 criteria.
ZipRecruiter scores 40 and Qureos 33 under rubric v1.0, a 7-point gap across the Sourcing and Screening cohorts. ZipRecruiter is ahead of Qureos on all 7 criteria but on none of them by as much as 20 raw points, the closest being Human Oversight Design at Qureos 54 to ZipRecruiter 55. The advantage ZipRecruiter holds is spread out: Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Qureos 28, ZipRecruiter 40, 20% weight), yet it supplies only 35% of the weighted points ZipRecruiter gains across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -6.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 6.9 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 -6.9.

§ 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.
