Hi I am feeding my jumping spider for the first time and I put in the mealworm and she isn’t going after it. Is there any way for her to notice it.

If she is not eating it she must not be hungry or she is molting and the meal worm could be a bit to big. But you can try "herding" her over to it by gently tapping her in the abdomen.

that mealworm looks a little big for her, try something that moves a little more like a small cricket or a fly

I would request Blue bottle/ Green bottle flies but if you decide on a cricket watch it carefully crickets can bite as well.
