A person in a company is the person in charge of hiring. Chances are he isn't the president/owner, unless it is a small company.

That person has to find the person who is the best for the company. If the person works out, then great. However if that person messes up, the boss is going to look at the person who hired him for an explanation. If the employee that hired him can show the screw-up had a good resume and had graduated from college, then he won't be the one to blame.
However if the person he hired had no college degree the boss will probably fire (or some sort of punishment) for hiring incompetent employees.

This is why "taking a chance" on an employee without a degree or credentials isn't very likely. The guy hiring you doesn't want to lose his job taking a risk, despite the fact you are obviously a wonderful and dedicated worker who just couldn't get around to college.
An addition to your point MMM, my uncle owns a garment manufacturing company in Saitama, if he hired someone without a degree and send this person out, not only that it will be seen as an act of disrespect, they will also question his ability to lead a compnay, because they will judge him and consider that as a poor decision, and will start having doubt on his ability to make sensible decision

Unfortunately, thats just how Japan is....
