The HR function continues to evolve and transform around the
world. Serving eastern New England as a Manager in our HR
Placement Practice, it is my goal to stay informed of those
changes, networking with passionate professionals in the
industry and companies who are innovatively adapting.
Human Resources plays an essential role in developing a
company's strategy, as well as handling the employee-centric
activities of an organization. It ensures the workforce embraces
the company's philosophy and business principles. This is why
leading firms are increasingly realizing the importance of
obtaining and retaining talented Human Resources
Professionals. They recognize the value they provide within the
framework of how business operates today at both a regional
and global scale.

3. At BFS we have developed a vast network within the HR
community and can tap into a more dormant job seeker
population which other agency recruiters and internal HR
departments rarely encounter.
We pride ourselves in not duplicating the hiring efforts of our
client companies by merely posting ads, but instead utilizing
our network of highly qualified individuals with whom we have
built long standing relationships with over the years.
I welcome the opportunity to partner with you! In addition, if
you are actively pursuing a new position, or just would like to
passively hear about career opportunities, feel free to contact
me. I would love to get to know you!

It isn't often that a job seeker has such an exceptional and
memorable experience with an agency recruiter. Looking for
work - especially in a very competitive field such as HR - can
be challenging and lets say I've had a "range" of experiences
with various agencies and corporate recruiters.
I can honestly say that after being in the corporate world for
many years, Jackelyn breaks the mold of any prior experience I
have had while job seeking. To say that she goes above and
beyond in the level of her dedication does not say enough about
her tenacity and commitment. Jackelyn has reached out to me
well outside of normal business hours and spends a great deal of
time in explaining the role, company, culture and management
style. She isn't merely after her commission and just hungry to
fill a role - she truly wants what is best for the candidate first
and foremost. As someone who works in the HR field it isn't
easy to impress us with the interview process, as we are often
the recruiting and on-boarding gurus ourselves.

6. Jackelyn is top notch in her field and I highly recommend both
those with job postings as well as job seekers to connect with
her. She brings a depth of knowledge and endless empathy for
what is a challenging time for job seekers. Jackelyn thank you
very much for your dedication and support!

I have had the privilege of working with Jacky at Total Clerical
Services. Jacky and I were commissioned to work as Recruiting
Managers for the National and Local offices and gained
experience overall success together. Through the several years
that we spent together in a professional environment as well as
personally developing a friendship, I have seen Jacky grow in
the professional world and seen how driven she is to succeed in
life.
Jacky is a successful risk-taker. She uses unique ways to
determine what the target market needs are for her accounts and
has the capability of tweaking her recruiting and vetting skill
set accordingly to make sure she is giving the client exactly
what they need. As a pragmatic leader and a realist, she can
grasp ideas in a holistic manner and still pay attention to minor
details. Jacky is known as diligent, personable, hardworking,
and strives for nothing but the best – all qualities that define her
completely.
As a creative thinker who possesses a can-do attitude, Jacky is a
pleasure to work with

About NIMS
NIMS, fully known as the National Incident Management
System, is a program of the Federal Emergency Management
Agency, commonly known as FEMA. FEMA is one of the
operational and support components of the Department of
Homeland Security, DHS. The DHS was formed in response to
ensure the protection of the American homeland in 2001 by
President G.W. Bush in response to the 9/11 attacks.
The Structure of NIMS
NIMS is organized into standard incident command centers
which are based on the following key organization systems:
1. The Incident Command System (ICS)
2. The Multiagency Coordination System
3. Public Information Systems
The Role and Function of NIMS
The role of NIMS is to provide a thorough approach in incident
management which can be applied into any emergency

8. regardless of its size or type. This approach is intended to be
highly flexible and standardized for efficient response to any
incident.
3. Conclusion
Conclusion
NIMS is vital to the Americans in that it provides national
awareness, preparedness and management of disasters thus
helping keep the American people safe.
Recommendations 1. Thoughts for future research
The incorporation of entire communities in disaster
preparedness. Organizing all allocated resources to ensure that
they are well allocated in preparedness and recovery for any
calamity.
