The idea is to pass the keyword and the location to the context.

def individual_home(request):
if request.method == 'GET':
    keyword = request.GET.get('keywords')
    print(keyword)
    location = request.GET.get('location')
    print(location)
    ind = IndividualProfile.objects.get(user_id=request.user.id)

    details = companyjob.objects.filter(
        Q(job_title=keyword) | Q(qualification=keyword) | Q(skills_required=keyword) | Q(job_location=location) & Q(closing_date__gte=datetime.date.today()))
    if details:
        print(details)
        count = details.count()
        paginator = Paginator(details, 3)
        page_number = request.GET.get('page')
        page_obj = paginator.get_page(page_number)

        return render(request, "individual_home.html",
                      {'keyword':keyword,'location':location,'jobs': page_obj,'count': count, 'ind': ind})
    else:
        return redirect("individual_homes")

change the padignation like this.
