hide by multi data attributes match existing variables with jquery/javascript

I'm trying to hide a div with two html data attributes for instance the one below which has html data attributes of Engineer and New York

 <div class="row" data-job-type="Engineer" data-job-location="New York"></div>
 <div class="row" data-job-type="Lockmsith" data-job-location="Maryland"></div>
 <div class="row" data-job-type="Wizard" data-job-location="New York"></div>

Below I tried to pass it in this way but it wouldn't work when I added the second attribute to it.

 var bar = "New York";
 var foo = "Engineer";

 $('.row[data-job-type=' + foo + ']','.row[data-job-location=' + bar + ']').hide();

Since the attribute value has spaces in it, that has to be enclosed in " or '.

Also since you want to select elements with both the attributes, you need to combine them as below

var bar = "New York";
var foo = "Engineer";

$('.row[data-job-type="' + foo + '"][data-job-location="' + bar + '"]').hide();
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="row" data-job-type="Engineer" data-job-location="New York">1</div>
<div class="row" data-job-type="Lockmsith" data-job-location="Maryland">2</div>
<div class="row" data-job-type="Wizard" data-job-location="New York">3</div>
