Let's say you want to create a hash that has two (or more) keys, like this. In this example, the "name" key is below the "employee" key.

'employee' {
             'name' => 'John Doe',
           }

Create the multidimensional keys and value.

my %hash = ( employee => { name => "John Doe" } );

Or like this.

my $hash{"employee"}->{"name"} = "John Doe";

Dumper can be used to print the hash.

print Dumper \%hash;

Which will produce the following.

$VAR1 = {
          'employee' => {
                          'name' => 'Jane Doe'
                        }
        };

Print the name key.

print $hash{"employee"}->{"name"};

Which will produce the following.

John Doe
