Many more are employed while building it. And they will never stop building. It's modern version of rail. But instead of distances it will cover the area.

Will local folks get those jobs to build the data center?
And if so, what happens to those builders once the data center is built?

Yes. At some point the demand will be so high that imported workers won't suffice and local population will need to be trained and hired.

They are going to be moved to a new place where the datacenters will need to be built next. Mobility if the workforce was often cited as one of the greatest strengths of US economy.
So local people in town 1 who are getting these jobs to build the data center will then have to move to town 2 to build a data center there? What happens to the local people in town 2 who are also looking for construction jobs?
