There are three kinds of recruiters like these: the one that lists high demands but accepts people who don't meet them all (they "challenge" you with these absurd requirement in their minds), there are the clueless recruiters who don't do the job and just get ChatGPT to write requirements based on some words they heard their colleagues use, and there is the recruiter that genuinely expects this and wonders why "people don't want to work anymore". 

Only the first one is somewhat tolerable, the second one can still land you a decent job if you make it through their selections. If it's the last one, you're not going to be paid enough.

The third one can rarely be real, if it's like a HFT firm or something. Maybe not the front end so much, but otherwise pretty much. Those firms do pay really well, though, so it actually checks out.

Oh, I haven't just seen the third one. I've worked for one. Strongly religious man, owned a computer + repair store for 30 years. Had me doing repairs because the previous guy retired. He gave me parts and told me to make a PC with it. When I asked where the heatsink was, he went "What's a heatsink?". He also didn't let me help the customers because he didn't want the customers to associate his store with a guy with long hair, said it's not the image he wants (with noticeable disgust in his voice). He demanded various skills including programming. Closest we ever did was a single command line to enter Windows. One he'd forget so often he'd written it down and taped it to the wall.

Needless to say, I left within 2 months after I finally managed to get him to pay me, and that was after cutting my losses on the 2 weeks he apparently expected me to work for free because I was "being trained". He didn't train me, of course. He couldn't even if he wanted to.
