The Laravel validator doesn't care where the data came from. You can manually create a validator and pass it the query string data.

$validator = Validator::make($request->query(), [
    'salary' => 'numeric',
    'name' => 'alpha_num',
    'description' => 'max:1000',
]);

if ($validator->fails()) {
    // show an error
}

Side note: As someone with a hyphenated last name, I implore you not to treat name as alphanumeric. See Falsehoods Programmers Believe About Names.
