That's not unusual, but it's usually to prevent bad candidates from trying to "sneak in" to a position the recruiter doesn't feel them qualified for. Wait, now recruiters UNDERestimate your skills and PREVENT you from going for a position? Why would they do that?Power trip mostly.
Recruiters are probably the most unqualified party to make this decision seeing as they barely have a grasp of IT buzz words (I WCFed the JS with my CSS and REST, BIOTCH!). I've had this happen to me once and it's some fucking elitist attitude because it's their client. Well fuck, lets talk to the client and see what they think, shall we? After I turned down the offer because I received another more favourable offer, I made it clear to the recruiter that I will never be working with her again. It works both ways, and I think they forget that sometimes...
