§ The result
SmartRecruiters leads Turing on all 7 criteria.
Rubric v1.0 puts 26 points between SmartRecruiters (ATS-integrated) and Turing (Assessment): 62 (D) for SmartRecruiters, 36 (F) for Turing. SmartRecruiters leads every one of the 7 criteria and 4 of them by 20 raw points or more, Bias Audit Transparency among them; Turing leads none. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (SmartRecruiters 78, Turing 28, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 35% of the weighted advantage SmartRecruiters holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

1.2 weighted points to SmartRecruiters
Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +26.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 26.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +26 beside that +26.1.
§ Category-by-category
Raw score per criterion, with weighted delta.
Δ is SmartRecruiters minus Turing.

§ 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.
