You want to add the jQuery CDN link to the <head> section of your html document.

<head>
  <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
  <script src="Your_JS_File_Here"></script>
</head>

If that doesn't work, copy and paste your code so we can see what you might be having trouble with.

I hope this helps!

Can you include your code so we can see what may be missing?

For the record, you do NOT want to add the jQuery CDN link to the <head> section of your HTML document. This has been covered time and time again. Although you can, there are inherent issues with doing so, and thus it's considered best practice to include in the lower body of your document.
