if it won't do anything check your connections making sure black to negative and red to positive. if you have the headlights on and they don't dim when you try to start it, it's most likely the starter.
Also, if the battery in the vehicle is completely dead and won't take a charge anymore, it won't start with a jump.

Your car wont start just makes a clicking sound?
That could be the alternator or the battery. Try jump starting your car with another car's battery. If it still does not start, it is probably the alternator. If it starts, your battery is dead.

Brand new battery and the car still requires a jump?
Starter motor problems, charging system problems, wiring and connection problems between battery, alternator and starter. To many possiblities to list. If the battery is still charged and you need to jump the car to get it to start you have a bad starter. Now you say how can that be? it starts when its jumped? Correct the starter is drawing too much power"amps" and having a second battery "the jump" appx doubles the amount of amps to the starter allowing it to start. Replace the starter and problem will go away. Besides it wont take too long before a jump wont allow it to start.
