This is an interesting question in that it asks what you're not supposed to do in the role of an IT business analyst. Most people prepare for questions that ask what they are expected to do, require them to define terms, or discuss other aspects of their job. A question like this can trip you up during an interview if you are not prepared. This is another reason to thoroughly research the job and to practice mock interview questions to prepare yourself for the interview.

"While there are many things that IT business analysts don't do in this role, some of the things most people think they should do which are not their responsibility include organizing the project team, its agenda, and the meetings they hold, assigning risk and tracking the issues related to specific projects, and performing coding, programming, or testing activities."
