Output dropdown in Job Filters/Search page for job_location

How can you list jobs as a dropdown instead of an input search field with a template override in job-filters.php.

I’ve tried the following code snippet:

<?php
    $job_locations = get_custom_field_config( 'job_location', 'options' );
    if ( is_array( $job_locations ) ):
?>
        <select class="" name="search_location" id="search_location">
            <option value="" <?php selected( empty( $location ) || ! in_array( $location, $job_locations ) ); ?>><?php _e( 'Any Location' ); ?></option>
            <?php foreach( $job_locations as $loc_val => $loc_label ): ?>
                <option value="<?php echo esc_attr( $loc_val ); ?>" <?php selected( $location, $loc_val ); ?>><?php echo esc_attr( $loc_label ); ?></option>
        <?php endforeach; ?>
        </select>
<?php endif; ?>

Thank you!
