Samirah and Raniah are sisters and partners in a business that imports and sells fresh flowers. They have been in business for nearly four years and because of the growth of the business, the partnership needs a new salesperson. On Friday 17 August 2016, Samirah and Raniah interviewed Aadam for the position, and at the end of the interview, they offered the position to him. Aadam thereafter asked, “If he can have the weekend to think about it”. Samirah subsequently told him, that the offer will remain open until Monday 20 August 2016.

After Aadam completed his interview and left the office, Samirah and Raniah discussed the process further, and consequently changed their minds. Samirah a few hours later called Aadam and told him that the offer of employment has been withdrawn. Aadam immediately advised Samirah that he has already written an email to the Company accepting the position, and that he was just about to send it. Samirah quickly told Aadam that unfortunately it is too late, and discontinued the telephone conversation. Samirah then told Raniah that she will advertise the position again next week and hopefully will find someone to fill the position.

Was a contract formed with Aadam on 17 August? Focus upon whether or not an agreement was reached.
