Job title: easy, you can use your prev job or whatever your expertise is
Company: this one is tricky imo. I saw “Visitor” , “Personal Contractor”, “Freelance”, “Independent contractor”, and also made up name (Bob Inc)…etc.
Usually those places just want you to fill out the info online, then at the event, you scan a QR to get your badge. But in some rare case, they need to call out “Your name + Your company” to get the badges. What do you do? I had to use my prev company title and name.
A former coworker of mine was basically pushed out of the company we worked for, despite having basically written most of the software stack. He started doing independent consultant work for the customers, as the company’s management was such a disaster that they were unable to support deployments. He operated under the company name “MMI”, which stood for “Me, Myself and I”. I’ve stolen this name to describe working for myself on more than one occasion.
Whatever you feel like.

You have now, officially, crossed the line.
“$20 BJs, not gay, but $20 is $20”.
I have an address modifier for my physical home address (a description to help delivery people find it) and always just use that when there is a ‘company’ field on anything not related to my job. So basically, I make something up, say my home is my business.
But I like the idea of “Independent” a lot. I’m sure they aren’t trying to keep you out, just trying to help you network.
Just use a random number and pretend you’re a listed company.
