In the next two weeks?
I will see you in the next two weeks.
I will see you in two weeks' time.
I will see you two weeks from now.
I will see you the week after next.
I will see you in two weeks.
Do these sentences mean the same that they don't see each other again until two weeks from now?
Does 'I will stay here for/ in 2 weeks' tell us about the length of stay? What is the difference between the two prepositions used in this case?

Only three of these sentences have this meaning, while two of them have a different meaning,
I will see you in two weeks' time.
I will see you two weeks from now.
I will see you in two weeks.
These three sentences all have the same meaning. I'd presume that we'd meet again on Monday 23rd March.
I will see you the week after next.
This is less precise. It would mean that I'll see you some time during the week of the 23 - 30 March.
I will see you in the next two weeks.
This means that I'll see you some time during the next two weeks - any day between now and 23rd March.

Best options :
"I will see you in (exactly) two week's time" If I say this today, I will see you on exactly 23 March or around 23 March.
"I have worked / I will work for 2 weeks" - use for + duration
