Temachane Nkosi

Industrial and Organisational Psychology Master's student at the University of Cape Town with experience across behavioural analysis, academic support, research methods, and compliance. My background includes Applied Behaviour Analysis, tutoring in Organisational Psychology and research design, and I currently work as a Fraud Prevention Intern at impact.com, where I support investigations, evidence review, policy compliance, and client-related case work. I bring strong analytical, communication, and report-writing skills, with a developing interest in psychometric assessment, employee wellness, recruitment and selection, organisational development, and evidence-based HR practice.

I am detail-oriented, people-focused, and committed to applying psychological theory and research to improve workplace decision-making, employee experience, and organisational effectiveness.
