Answer 1

I solve this problem with this code

 $query = Worker::select('workers.name_and_surname', 'workers.id', 'workers.location','company_saved_cv.worker_id')
        ->leftJoin('company_saved_cv', function($leftJoin)use($company_id)
        {
            $leftJoin->on('workers.id', '=', 'company_saved_cv.worker_id');
            $leftJoin->on(DB::raw('company_saved_cv.company_id'), DB::raw('='),DB::raw("'".$company_id."'"));


        })

Well when you use LEFT JOIN with where it acts as an INNER JOIN

Use LEFT JOIN and WHERE like

SELECT workers.name_and_surname, workers.id, workers.location,company_saved_cv.worker_id
FROM workers LEFT JOIN company_saved_cv
ON company_saved_cv.worker_id= workers.id
WHERE company_saved_cv.company_id = 2

OUTPUT

|id|location|name_and_surname|worker_id|
---------------------------------------|
|61|London  | John John      |  61     |
|66|London  | John John      |  66     |

Use LEFT JOIN and AND like

SELECT workers.name_and_surname, workers.id, workers.location,company_saved_cv.worker_id
FROM workers LEFT JOIN company_saved_cv
ON company_saved_cv.worker_id= workers.id
AND company_saved_cv.company_id = 2

OUTPUT

|id|location|name_and_surname|worker_id|
---------------------------------------|
|61|London  | John John      |  61     |
|62|London  | John John      | NULL    |
|66|London  | John John      | 66      |
|67|London  | John John      | NULL    |
|68|London  | John john      | NULL    |

New query

$query = Worker::select('workers.name_and_surname', 'workers.id', 'workers.location','company_saved_cv.worker_id')
        ->leftJoin('company_saved_cv', function($leftJoin)
        {
            $leftJoin->on('company_saved_cv.worker_id', '=', 'workers.id')

                ->on('company_saved_cv.company_id', '=', Session::get('company_id') );


        })

You can easily use the Model for it. The last table, you can remove the location because you can get it with and from the model. Create easily a many-2-many relationship or something you want. Check the docs: http://laravel.com/docs/4.2/eloquent#relationships
