>If, instead of having a skills-based interview with the employer, you had one with the recruiter, who would only take you on as a client if you matches a certain level of skill/talent, in theory everyone's problems are solved.

There are a few recruiters that try to approximate this; see a list here: https://github.com/vchernoy/dreamjob

It's not an original idea, but I think there's a gap in the market for this to be done at a more local level, and for the other 90% of jobs that aren't at big tech agencies.

A lot of these platforms are trying to solve the process for huge companies that offer whiteboard algorithm-based interviews, whereas a local agency down the road just wants a Rails developer with ecommerce experience, or a .NET developer with Umbraco experience. It's these companies that are more likely to want to use a recruiter, and it's tech bosses at these companies that are often wary of not only other peoples interview processes, but their own.
