According to MSDN, ObjectSet<Data.Employee> is implementing
IEnumerable<Data.Employee>. So your "genericParameter", when
inflating ToList, must be Data.Employee.

To me, it looks like you want to inflate & invoke to ToList
on ObjectSet<Data.Employee> which doesn't sound quite right to me.

But I'm missing context to be able to answer this. Do you have a C#
scribble of what you're trying to achieve?
