I know that the coefficients $[z^n]$ of the exponential generating function $\frac{\exp{\frac{z}{1-z}}}{1-z}$ are $\sum_{i=0}^{n}i!\binom{n}{i}^2$ but have trouble in proving it. I have done the following:$$\exp{\frac{z}{1-z}}=\sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{\big(\frac{z}{1-z}\big)^k}{k!}=\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\frac{\sum_{i\geq k}\binom{i-1}{k-1}z^i}{k!}=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\bigg(\sum_{k=1}^n\frac{\binom{n-1}{k-1}}{k!}\bigg)z^n$$ and thus $$[z^n]\frac{1}{1-z}\exp{\frac{z}{1-z}}=\sum_{j=0}^{n}\sum_{k=1}^{j}\frac{\binom{j-1}{k-1}}{k!}$$ I have tried several things to turn the above sum into the wanted form but did not succeed. Is there anyone who can help?

As I wrote in a comment, the expression at the top should be divided by $n!$ and then becomes $\sum_{i=0}^n\frac1{i!}\binom ni$. To get this from the expression at the bottom, exchange the order of summation and apply the hockey stick identity.
