Search is not working in laravel - php

Question

I have a project in this i am stuck because i want to search by industry, educational level, Areas of Experience but it does not act in the way i want to do. I have a dropdown list named industry after selecting industry the educational level, Areas of Experience comes in a checkbox. After selecting the box i want to search and display the result. My Search controller is
public function searchProfessionals (Request $request)
{
$industry = $request->input('industry');
$educationLevels = $request->input('educationLevels');
$areasOfExperiences = $request->input('areasOfExperiences');
$startPrice = $request->input('start_price');
$endPrice = $request->input('end_price');
$meetingType = $request->input('meeting_type');
if ($meetingType == 1) {
$type = [1, 1];
} elseif ($meetingType == 2) {
$type = [2, 2];
} elseif ($meetingType === 3) {
$type = [1, 2];
} else {
$type = [1, 2];
}
$userMeetings = array();
$userRoles = array();
$users = array();
$showUsers = array();
$userHourRates = array();
$userIndus = UserIndustry::where('industry_id', $industry)->get();
$userDegrees = UserDegree::where('degree_id', $educationLevels)->get();
$userAreaOfExperiences = UserAreaOfExperience::where('area_of_experience_id', $areasOfExperiences)->get();
if (!empty($userIndus)) {
foreach ($userIndus as $userInd) {
if (!empty($userDegrees)) {
foreach ($userDegrees as $userDegree) {
if (!empty($userAreaOfExperiences)) {
foreach ($userAreaOfExperiences as $userAreaOfExperience) {
$userHourRates[] = UserTime::where('user_id', $userAreaOfExperience->user_id)->whereBetween('hour_rate', [$startPrice, $endPrice])->first();
}
}
$userHourRates[] = UserTime::where('user_id', $userDegree->user_id)->whereBetween('hour_rate', [$startPrice, $endPrice])->first();
}
}
$userHourRates[] = UserTime::where('user_id', $userInd->user_id)->whereBetween('hour_rate', [$startPrice, $endPrice])->first();
}
