no. the next would be to have a company to hire you. if they are willing to sponsor you then whether you came from a university or community college won't matter. The company will be the one to apply for you COE ( Certificate of Employment ) , once you have that, then you can go an apply for you visa.

If you are a fresh graduate in a foreign country and you want to apply directly to a japanese company without any experience, you chance of getting hired is very slim. Japan will always prioritize its local fresh graduate.

If you are a foreign worker, you have to have a very good employment background. Working experience is first basis. Most of the people I know, either graduated in a Japanese university and then where offered/accepted a job, or have 3-5 working experience before coming to Japan. Then there is the Japanese skill.
