A celebrity guest calls in (or occasionally appears onstage) to be interviewed by the host and the panelists as well as take a three-question multiple-choice quiz. In ''Wait Wait''{{'}}s early years, "Not My Job" guests were mainly pulled from NPR's roster of personalities and reporters; the pool of guests later expanded to include guests of greater celebrity. As the segment's title suggests, the guests are quizzed on topics that are not normally associated with their field of work. For example, former U.S. Secretary of State [[Madeleine Albright]] was asked questions on the history of [[Hugh Hefner]] and ''[[Playboy (magazine)|Playboy]]'' magazine,<ref>{{cite interview | subject=Madeleine Albright | interviewer=Peter Sagal |title=Not My Job! | url=https://www.npr.org/programs/waitwait/archrndwn/2003/dec/031206.waitwait.html | type=Interview: Audio | work=Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! | publisher=NPR/WGBH | date=December 6, 2003 | access-date=January 13, 2008}}</ref> while author [[Salman Rushdie]] was asked about the history of [[Pez]] candy.<ref>{{cite interview | subject=Salman Rushdie | interviewer=Peter Sagal |title=Not My Job! | url=https://www.npr.org/programs/waitwait/archrndwn/2001/sep/010908.waitwait.html | type=Interview: Audio | work=Wait Wait...
