I guess you want to retain the submitted data on error.

Considering a sample

public function postJobs(Request $request) {
    $input     = $request->all(); 

    $messages  = [
        'job_title.required'      => trans('job.title_required'),
    ];        

    $validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
        'job_title'    => 'required'
    ], $messages);       

    if ($validator->fails()) {  // redirect if validation fails, note the ->withErrors($validator)

        return redirect()
            ->route('your.route')
            ->withErrors($validator)
            ->withInput();
    }

 // Do other stuff if no error

}

And, in the view you can handle errors like this:

 <div class="<?php if (count($errors) > 0) { echo 'alert alert-danger'; } ?>" >

    <ul>
        @if (count($errors) > 0)
            @foreach ($errors->all() as $error)
                <li>{!! $error !!}</li>
            @endforeach
        @endif
    </ul>
</div>

And if you want the input data, you need to redirect with ->withInput(); which can be fetch in view like:

Update

 <input name= "job_title" value="{{ Request::old('job_title') }}" />

But, the best thing is to use laravel Form package so they all are handled automatically.
