If I started a new job in December but didn't get paid until January do I need a W2 for that job?

No, you didn't receive any money from that tax year.

No. Because you received your first paycheck after the 1st of January 2016, you do not need a W-2 from the employer for the job you started in 2015. Please let me know if this helped.
