To increase your chances of getting an interview. They get paid if you get a job. Any job. So they want you to go to as many interviews as possible, and they'll press you to accept any offer (an agent who says "hang on for a bit" is a rarity). To get you to as many interviews as possible, they'll send you to totally unsuitable ones in the hope that (a) you'll impress the client anyway and (b) you'll go mad and take the job.
