Checkboxes are a bit more difficult to search because the values are stored as serialized arrays. The query would look something like

$args = array(
  'post_type' => 'salesperson',
  'meta_query' => array(
    'relation' => 'AND',
    array(
      'key' => 'country',
      'value' => '"'.$country.'"',
      'compare' = 'LIKE'
    ),
    array(
      'key' => 'state',
      'value' => '"'.$state.'"',
      'compare' = 'LIKE'
    ),
    array(
      'key' => 'industry',
      'value' => '"'.$industry.'"',
      'compare' = 'LIKE'
    )
  )
);
$query = new WP Query($args);
