Only if it's relevant to the position being offered. If it's not, then no. In fact, in many areas of employment English language ability isn't a criteria at all; as a foreigner looking for work in Japan the two main things they want are a) all the same credentials an employer outside Japan would look for in an employee, and 2) excellent native-level business japanese.
I really can't imagine you getting anywhere in a technical field with 0 Japanese, and be aware that a full-time college degree in Japanese won't give you 'native-level ability' by any means.
