They serve at the pleasure of the President, so it depends how long he wants them. Generally, it will be 4 or 8 years, they will be appointed at the start of his term and usually last until the end barring any scandals.

As long as the President wants them to. Theoretically, they can stay on when the new administration comes in if the new President wants them to continue.
