I've never met a recruiter that works in my interest. Maybe I haven't met enough recruiters?

The recruiter does not work for the talent, the recruiter works for the company.

No, recruiters work for the commission. Talent dislikes them, and Hiring managers dislike them. Except the good ones. But those are rare.
