why are you not getting hired for jobs? are you applying for ones you are not qualified for? do you not give enough time availability? try a supermarket or a walmart or something food related they tend to have high employee turnovers..the most important thing is to be available.... and then when you are hired even if you hate it don't quit.....
what will your degree be in when you are done? where would you like to relocate? what would you like to do when you are done? after you decide these things go visit your colleges career center or something that's similar...... and they might be able to help you with your resume and where and what to look for .....

Maybe you suffer from short day depression -- also known as seasonal affective disorder. When the days get shorter and the weather turns bad you begin to feel nasty and down. You might want to get screened for that, because it is a real possibility.
The strange thing about seasonal affective disorder is that nice weather won't always cure it. I live in southern Arizona, where winters are absolutely gorgeous (I used to live in northern Indiana so I know what winters in Wisconsin are like!). Even the shortened days here can leave me feeling a little bit down.
So I would speak with a doctor and see if maybe you can't get checked. You might have a problem you're not aware of - and moving isn't going to cure it...unless you move near the equator where the days are more or less the same length year round!
Good luck!

What's your major or area of interest? I have a sister in Raleigh, NC and jobs are plentiful---lots of high tech industry in the Cary, Raleigh, Triangle area--- property taxes are a third of Wisconsin's...you can afford more house, winters are mild, coast is gorgeous as are the mountains--2 hour trip either way--lots of historic sites and great shopping/dining. DC and Virginia are 6 hours away. Direct flights are now available.The people are very friendly and neighborly.Does get quite hot in summer at times and there's the occasional hurricane but being in from the coast helps. Find a good temperate area of the country with good job prospects and live there for a while. Kentucky or Tennesee are good options too. If you're not a winter sport person, southern living is quite charming.

Obviously, hang in there and finish college. I know it seems very unfair, but count your blessings you have a place to live while going to college.
Try to land employment in one of the southern states while still in school.. I don't know what your major is, but I hope it isn't so restrictive that it hinders your choice of living areas.
Once you graduate, move to where you want to live. Even it you don't land a job in your profession, get any job to pay the bills while looking. There are jobs out there, just be willing to work for the needed pay.

You only have one more year in college. Focus on your studies and do a very good job - the best you can possibly do. Have your eyes set on the future, not the present. When you graduate, leave. If you always try your best, you will make your way in the world.
The important thing is not to let your discomfort in your present circumstances make you incapable of moving forward in life. You know, there are many people in this world who have overcome very bad beginnings to live fruitful lives.

If you can't get a job now and your parents can't afford to send you to a college out of state, you're just going to have to tolerate (& appreciate!!!) your parents, since they're obviously helping you out greatly, concentrate on your studies, bide your time, get a job later, and leave. You've been there all this time, you can tolerate a little longer. You could maybe see if a school counselor has any ideas.

(what does this have to do with math?)
Check with your college job placement services, and lower your expectations. if you've never had a job, then it's even more true that you're gonna have to settle for a ground floor entry level position of some sort. with no job experience you simply arn't going to be given a job in whatever your field of study is. first you have to establish a basic work ethic for your resume before anyone will give you a significant position. You may even have to start in fast-food. really it's not as bad as it sounds.

If you are feeling spontanious, move. Get a Tuition Answer loan from Sallie Mae, move to Austin, Texas, and go to school for philosophy.
