As for your zero hours contracts comment, that’s a matter of individual choice. If you don’t want insecurity of hours allocated to you, go for a permanent contract offering a basic wage or salary. Zero hours contracts are for people who want flexibility of their working hours.
It is indeed a matter of individual choice - so if a potential employee wants to take their labour elsewhere or, having done more research on a company decides to not attend the interview, that's their right to do so.

Contracts for people who wants flexibility tend to be called "flexible working" or "flexi-time". Zero hour contracts are just a way to exploit the low paid - unsurprising you are in support!
