I don't have Forms so I can't look at your form.

LoV is attached to an item, it populates an item in a single record (so you can't populate several employees anyway). Therefore, what does "populating only particular employee LOV" mean? What is a "particular employee LOV"?

Don't do that. Use a text item with an LOV instead.
If you use a list item then you won't be able to query records where the job doesn't match one in the current set in the list item.

Here's how I do that; as Cookiemonster says, use list of values (which means: leave JOBS as a text item).
- create a record group which selects jobs depending on DEPTNO:

select distinct job
from emp
where deptno = :your_block.deptno_text_item
order by job

- create a list of values which is based on previously created record group
- run a form
- enter department number and navigate to JOBS item
- open list of values (check which key is mapped to it, or - simply use a toolbar button)
- select a job from the list of values

As you can see, you don't need any trigger.
