Truthfully, it wouldn’t actually work like that. Assuming you ever were bit by a radioactive spider (and that radioactivity hadn’t already swiftly killed that spider beforehand), all the bite would do is pass on its radiation poisoning on to you. And how much you get depends on the amount of exposure and the type of spider. The smaller the spider is, the smaller amount of venom, the smaller amount of radiation poisoning you’d get. Particularly small spiders don’t even have fangs large enough to fully pierce human skin, so a bite from that type of spider wouldn’t even get the venom inside of you where it’d have the maximum chance of doing anything. Finally, the radioactivity probably wouldn’t be enough to significantly change the behavior of the spider’s venom, so if it a dangerously venomous spider, you’re more likely to be harmed if not killed by the venom’s effects sooner than you would the radiation poisoning.
Unless the spider is, like, extremely radioactive, but that high amount of radiation exposure would kill the spider very quickly, and making it deathly ill to the point it’s probably not going to want to move around much before that, so you’d have a very narrow window of time of getting the bite and any potential effects from it at all, and have to be very close by (which then raises concerns of you being in the vicinity of the same high radiation exposure, which would ultimately be your more immediate concern than any spider bite anyway).

I haven’t seen all the films, but as I recall; the superpowers only kick in at a comically awkward moment.
