HOW TO ADD A NEW SUBCATEGORY? 

The steps are mostly the same ( few exceptions ) as the ones from the beginning of the article so we won't be putting images here.

1. Go to Dashboard > Jobs > Job category > Add new category (Name it as it was the subcategory). 
At ‘Parent category’ section choose the category you have created beforehand.
Press ‘Add new category' button.
2. Go to Dashboard > Appearance > Menus > Add menu Items > Job Categories > View all > Add to Menu first the category you created at the beginning, after add the one you named as it was the subcategory.
After adding both, click on the second one added and drag it a little to the right. It should appear as ‘sub item’ as above.

All the new added subcategories will pass at the end of the last category added. Please click the 'Up one' button or you can simply drag and drop the sub-item until they will get to their belonging category.

> Save Menu.
