§ The result
Wonderlic takes the total, Workstream takes more of the criteria.
Wonderlic holds a 4-point edge over Workstream under rubric v1.0, 43 to 39, across the Assessment and Screening cohorts. Workstream leads more of the criteria, 5 against 2 for Wonderlic, yet Wonderlic takes Bias Audit Transparency, which carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum with it. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Wonderlic 48, Workstream 20 — and at an 18% weight it carries 68% of the weighted advantage Wonderlic holds across the 2 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +4.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 10.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +4 beside that +4.4.

§ 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.
