SELECT column_list FROM tablename ORDER BY column_name1 [ASC][DESC],column_name2 [ASC][DESC],...

ORDER BY 
   column_name1 [ASC|DESC], 
   column_name2 [ASC|DESC],

  CASE WHEN status IN ('new', 'processing') THEN created_at END ASC,
  CASE WHEN status NOT IN ('new', 'processing') THEN created_at END DESC
