This is part of what employers think they're buying when they use a recruiter to bring in candidates. Of course they aren't getting what they pay for, and there's also the problem of inherently misaligned interests.
You might be able to sell that same service to job-seekers too. Many candidates are so poorly practiced that they hide genuine talent. Some are even aware of those shortcomings.
Absolutely agree with that. A few rounds of practice before appearing will not hurt and will definitely increase your chances. But I am guessing selling it to fellow developers will be difficult. So I am starting with companies. But I agree with your idea and will give your idea a try as well.
