As per https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/09/n...-citizens.html "[...] there has been a lack of clarity about when or how the couple [Melania's parents] received green cards".

Re: Prince Harry's new Job - what visa ?
The Christmas before I retired I attended a party at the US Embassy. During the course of a conversation it was made very clear to me that when I wanted my visa all I had to do was call the person I was talking to, and I could attend the Embassy next day with my passport and have the visa put in it. Concerned about future complications at the US end if I did that, I went the normal route. But if that offer was made to me, I have no doubt Harry was made one he didn't refuse.
I had a similar conversation with someone re a Green Card.

Unlike Pamela Anderson, they didn't want publicity at that point in their move.

This?
"An O visa is a classification of non-immigrant temporary worker visa granted by the United States to an alien "who possesses extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics"

That is the one, I could see how he could get it. Not quite a demanding as that may suggest.

Re: Prince Harry's new Job - what visa ?
So because a journalist (who probably doesn’t understand how the process works and probably also hasn’t been through it) said so, it must be true? There’s nothing strange about a naturalized citizen petitioning their parents. It’s not as if Melania couldn’t afford it. It’s a very simple process. Not sure why anyone would think there was anything suspicious about it.

Not what I would consider a creditable source but:
“While it is not know how Harry has stayed in the US without permanent US citizenship, it is believed due to his royal status, he probably has an A1 visa which is reserved for "diplomats and government officials".Earlier this month, The Times reported while Harry is eligible to become a permanent US resident, he will not pursue residency and citizenship in the country.
A royal source said: "The Duke has not made an application for dual citizenship, and I don't think he will apply for a green card at any point."

He would have to go GC first before US Citizenship
But I can see an A1 is possible but did not think it came with work authorisation.
However it does come with Diplomatic Immunity of some sort.
How would he be paid?
