php - How do I add a filter to switch email recipient based on post category in Wordpress

Question

I am using a Wordpress plugin for job posts to keep them out of the general blog posts, and they plugin offers a setting for a notification email upon application sent to an email recipient, but only 1. How do I get a function that will allow me to switch the email recipient based on the category of the job posting. Example, if the job is in "IT" then the notification email would go to "[email protected]" and a "Retail" category post would go to "[email protected]"

Based on some research for applying this logic to woocommerce, I have attempted to get some groundwork started on this, but would really appreciate help on doing it right. I know I am not as close as I would like, but here is what I have so far...

add_filter( 'hr_notification', 'custom_sjb_hr_notification_to', 10, 2 );
  function custom_sjb_hr_notification_to( $recipient, $email ) {
    if ('jobpost_category' == 'it');
      $to = apply_filter('sjb_hr_notification_to', '[email protected]');
    } else if ('jobpost_category' == 'retail') {
      $to = apply_filter('sjb_hr_notification_to', '[email protected]');
    } else  {
      $to = get_option('settings_hr_email');
    }
    return $recipient;
  }
